I like Laura Dawn best followed by Clara Dawn. If you want distinctive, Clara might be the way to go.

I like Laura but I adore Clara. It's one of my top favorites. Of your combos I like Clara June and Clara May best. The other mn's are nms.

---

If you insist on choosing Clara, may I suggest Klara. Clara seems too grandmotherly to me, whereas Klara is appealingly fresh.

I prefer Clara to Laura, but both are pretty. They'd make great sister names.

Laura Sue or Clara Sue? Laura Sue seems to sound a bit better, but I'm not really a fan of the name Sue.
Laura Dawn or Clara Dawn? Laura Dawn.
Laura June or Clara June? Clara June.
Laura May or Clara May? Laura May sounds a bit better, but they're both nice. Clara May reminds me of a make-up brand though.
Laura Janet or Clara Janet? Laura Janet. These both seem too long as double first names. I don't care for the name Janet to be honest.
Laura April or Clara April? Clara April. April is a nice name. I'd like to see it used more often.

Clara by a long shot! It is classic and lovely, whereas I always find Laura a little bland, myself. Of your combos, I would go with Clara June - lovely!

Emma, Emily, Elizabeth, Erica, Charlotte, Catherine, Chealsea, Jennifer, Jessica, Jocelyn.

Laura Sue or Clara Sue? Laura Sue
Laura Dawn or Clara Dawn? Clara Dawn
Laura June or Clara June? Laura June
Laura May or Clara May? Laura May
Laura Janet or Clara Janet? I don't like this as a mn for either of them, but Clara Janet.
Laura April or Clara April? Laura April.
And generally is Laura better than Clara? Or not? I'd say so. But I'm biased. I like Clara because, to me, it has a nice, old-fashioned Southern appeal. I think Laura is more classy and I generally just prefer Laura to Clara.

I like Laura better but that might just be because I know two Laura's one being my sister.

'Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.' -- 1 Timothy 4:12

Generally, I prefer Clara because Laura is so much more common. It's getting overdone.

---

Not a fan of Sue, Dawn, April, or Janet, but Clara June and Clara May are nice. I do prefer the spelling Mae, though.
