I love Claire, simple, lovely and classic. But its long popularity has made it very common. I know a 50 yr old, 30 yr old, and little girls named Claire. I love it, but don't want to use something so common. I am also avoiding C names.
I suppose that is exactly what I was thinking . Blair is similar to Claire... but I guess I have only heard of Blair used as masculine.
I like these but doubt my husband would.
