Claudia
What do you guys think of the name Claudia? What would you pair it with? Would you prefer Claudine? How do you feel about Klaudia?

Some people Claudia is ugly but I think it sounds very cool and strong while still being a semi common name. Klaudia is okay, I prefer the C. Claudine makes me think of Monster High, so I don’t like that one. The “een” sound is a bit dated as well.

My name is Claudia. As much as I’d like to recommend my own name, I don’t think it fits me, and because it has older lineage (Roman history, to name one) it feels a bit dated. (Sort of like Guinevere—though I would like to see a revival of that name.) I don’t like Klaudia as much (it feels imposing) but Claudine is really cute! Have you ever considered Lydia? I know it’s not super close to what you’re looking at, but the name came to mind as I was writing this and I wanted to throw it out there.

I prefer the (French) sound of Claudine to dreary Claudia. Klaudia at least sounds better than Claudia, but I wouldn't use any of them.

It's beautiful, I really like it. Claudine is not as pretty to me, but it's still pretty fun and I'd love to meet one. Klaudia is very sharp and intimidating in a thrilling sort of way. Claudia is a very stately sort of name to me, and it's a particular shade of silvery-purple-blue. Claudia Lillian is coming to mind as a combo I'd probably enjoy.

I like it well enough. Not a fan of Claudine or Klaudia.

I really liked this name a couple years ago. I'm not as fond of it now, but I still think it's nice.
