The name is also used in Sweden, and Denmark. [noted -ed]
This site, as have others, says Clara is the #4 name in France. Knowing that it definitely sounds like a little French girl to me. Even if it didn't originate there, it is certainly used there. Shouldn't it be listed as a French name as well?
