In America, Tara and Cara are often TAIR-a and CAIR-a. TAH-ra and CAH-ra feel more natural to me. I've never met a LAIR-a or a ZAIR-a, always LAH-ra and ZAH-ra. Outside of the US, I don't think "AIR" pronounciations are ever used for those names.
(I'm from the US, by the way. I realise my post sort of sounds like I'm not.)
I have occasionally heard Sara "SAH-ra" but, though it seems logical, I think it's barely used in the US. Usually, Sarahs and Saras are the same.
