If I was forced to choose between these two I'd pick Astra. I really don't care for either name. For better or worse, Astra is the name of an acrylic yarn manufactured by the Canadian company Patons. I doubt very few people know that though, and at least it's a decent yarn

I think I'd avoid the 'ass' part of Astra. It is rather cool, though. Isn't there a cartoon where the pet's name is Astro (The Jetson's)? Starla isn't bad. Still, I'd prefer something like Estella, Stella or Maris.

Astra just sounds like "astronaut".. Starla reminds me of Darla or any common -la ending name. But straight up STAR would be nice. I do like that.

I like Stella and Seren.(I would also like Astrid but, despite it's similarity to Astra it's has nothing to do with stars. It means 'beautiful god').

Astrid is a fave of mine +Astra is too wordy for me, and even though we have a great poster here named Starla, I don't much care for it as a name. Astrid is class and still star related.Or Stella! I can't believe I forgot Stella. It's another favorite of mine, one I would seriously consider using myself someday.
