Carla/Karla
Lately I've been really liking the name Carla/Karla. I know it is dated but think it would be a nice name for a comback. It just has a very pretty, light sound. WDYT of it?

I don't think Carla is dated at all, I really like it! I think Karla looks a bit harsh though.
I also really like Clara.

It actually does have a pretty, light sound. I can see that when I separate it from the dated middle-aged image it has for me. I prefer the spelling Carla. Karla looks harsher to me.

It's never appealed to me at all. Especially with the K instead of C. Sounds like a cough.I know a sibset of Carla and Charles. Not good either.

I love Carla - as you say, it's pretty and light in sound. I don't think it's too dated - I could easily see it on a baby today. I much prefer it to Clara.
Not keen on Karla though.

I like Carla or Karla. I think it indeed could make a comeback. I think I prefer the spelling Carla though.

I like it, though not as much as Carly. Karla is fairly popular among Hispanics right now, seems.

It's nice. My cousin's daughter is named Carla, and it really suits her.I prefer Carla to Karla.
