Vera is lovely, wouldn’t mind seeing it used more.

I like Vera.

---

I think Vera and Jack kind of match, but kind of don't.

---

They are both vintage names, but Jack sounds like smack and has a hard edge which makes Vera veer into severe.

---

I like Vera with more of a glamorous Old Hollywood vibe.

Love Vera. I really hope Jack was a nickname.

I prefer Veda, but don't mind Vera. Jack for a girl, even as a nn, is tragic.

Too severa.

It's lovely! One of my coworkers back in 2017 named her daughter Vera Millie (Vera pronounced as Vera Wang pronounces it, not "VEE-ra"; Millie after her husband's grandma).

Not a fan. It's somewhat common here, but it's also an old Swedish name and the name of my grandmother's sister. Nothing I'd use.

Holy cow - Vera is back. It's charting in the 200s.

I think Vera is a beautiful name. Jack however, makes me feel sick on a girl. Poor child.

I like Vera. Jack as a nickname for a girl is awful.

It's ok

Cute! Vera and Jack is a cool retro set.

I like it, I've only heard it used in the Pink Floyd song.

I like Vera with a short e, but not so much with an eeuh sound.

I've met a lot of people called Vera, as well as people named Vira (it's a variant). I think it's a nice name.

Ooh, I don't like it because of a personal association. It wasn't a bad association by any means, it was just the name of a slightly kooky great aunt who wore a wig that was always askew and layered on the bright red lipstick and blue eyeshadow. She was a sweet person, but I can't hear the name without having that image. Maybe if I knew a different Vera, that would change.
