Cara is much nicer than Kara....with a K i think of that Kara Tointon off Eastenders who is pretty chavvy looking IMO and that puts me off...Cara is lovely tho. I have a great friend called Cara-Jane who is gorgeous.

Daniel is perfectly acceptable but not very exciting....

Completely agree with the others' it looks so wrong with a K, has to be Cara. It is a lovely name.

Daniel, is just Daniel.

Very different names,

Cara is nicer than Kara, I like Cara alot.

Daniel is a Dads name. Too old and boring for a baby,

and by boring I mean just 'blurghh' Not even nice and classic, just blurgh.

I love Cara (with a C) and think Daniel is OK, bit boring but much better than some names these days. I like Danny.

I love them both.

Daniel is a classic ... lovely name. And I like Kara with a K.

AGain, Daniel I like, but Kara with a K looks wrong. Prefer Cara, and I prefer Clara even more.

Agree about Kara Tointon. Why several coats of Ronseal?? Tone it down about four shades!!

Daniel is a good, strong, solid name that never dates - and Dan is a fairly cool name also. Cara is not spelt with a K - if you do spell it that way it'll look like you simply can't spell.

I have a Daniel. Not a boring name at all.

Thunderduck · 21/06/2009 21:17

I love Daniel.

I love Kara too, but spelled with a C. It doesn't look right with a K.
