I've always loved this name. It's feminine, strong and pleasantly timeless sounding. It reminds me of a mysterious girl that loves nature. This is my second choice if we have a daughter.
I think this name is so gorgeous and elegant. Would love to name a child Vera. I hope it doesn’t get too popular, though I do think it will rise in the charts soon.

Beautiful and delightfully old-fashioned. I like the VEH-ra pronunciation best.
What's wrong with a name being popular? And Vera is my favorite name. I like the precise sound of it.

Anybody commenting bad on this name is just hoping to keep the name for themselves. I don't blame them, it's so beautiful I hope it doesn't become extremely popular.

Vera may sound old-fashioned, but I think its meaning is sweet.
This is the name of my grandfather’s wife, so in essence my step grandmother? Regardless, part of me thinks this is a a very elegant and beautiful name. However, the other part of me feels like it might be slightly dated.

I've met a Swiss exchange student named Vera and she was the kindest! Fell in love with the name as soon as I heard it.
A nice name. I'm glad that a bunch of annoying hipsters haven't taken over this name and ruined it like Olivia, Isabella, etc. I' m almost afraid to leave this comment, because I don't want to jinx the name into being ruined by the idiot masses!

I do not like this name, nor do I like Veronica, Victoria, Veruca, and Valentina. I guess I just don't like V names (other than Vivianne).
I simply love the name Vera. I named my daughter Vera 9 years ago. I feel it is feminine, strong, stylish and elegant! She gets compliments on it all the time. I also love 4 letter names!
I have two impressions of the name "Vera." First, it reminds me of a musty old woman. Second, it makes me think of a female body-builder (Jim Carey, "In Living Color"). I would avoid this name.

Not my favorite but it's nice. I like the meaning too. To anyone who thinks this name is for old ladies, I just met a baby girl named Vera Kate! :P
I think Vera is a very beautiful name, but I can't shake the image of Jim Carrey in a bikini as "Vera" the Eastern European female body-builder on "In Living Color" in the early 90's. Nevertheless, I still think it's lovely and I don't think most people would make that connection.
I had a relative by this name. It is quite commonly used in Russia and other Eastern European countries and to me is one of the nicest feminine names anywhere.
