registration tomorrow, help.

[Stokey]

We've been calling dd2 Lara for the last 3 weeks but dh has now decided this is a bit dull and he prefers Cassia. I think I'd find it hard to change. So do we call register her as Cassia Lara or lara Cassia, and will she end up with identity crisis if she gets called two different names

Which do you prefer? Dd1 is saskia which i think is a little close to Cassia tbh, especially if they are sas and cas.

[SwedishEdith]

What about Cara? I like Lara though.

[MrsLettuce]

Lara Cassia. Beautiful!

Saskia and Cassia are just too close IMO.

Clara would be a good compromise and you could still call her Lara.

[picnicbasketcase]

I do think Saskia and Cassia are a bit too similar. I like Cara/Kara more than Lara though. That's probably no help.

[seeker]

I don't think you can have Saskia and Cassia, can you? How about Cressida?

Should I tell you that .Cassia is a spice that's very effective in the treatment of flatulence? Or not?

[nickelhasababy]

If you like one and DH likes the other, why don't you toss a coin for first name?

it doesn't matter which one you call her in every day life, as long as she knows who she is, and generally schools will use whatever name you tell them to.

[KlickKlackknobsac]

My 3dc have similar sounding names- Do NOT do it!
Saskia and Lara is much better
Or even Laura (not very common now)

[nickelhasababy]

I don't see a problem with saskia and cassia.
personally.

[MrsLettuce]

Not Cara, Clara - it's beautiful, classic, works well with Saskia and it's the perfect compromise!

[Pooka]

Definitely not cassia.

Clara/Lara/cara/Laura are all much better alongside saskia (as well as not being flatulence treating spices )

I like Clara. :)

[Stokey]

Ha ha seeker, Clara is shandy in Spanish so dh says definitely not.

[MrsLettuce]

Clarissa

[MaryPoppinsBag]

Lara definitely

[Lexiesgirl]

Lara Cassia is lovely. Cassia is a bit too close to Saskia imo.

[Scatterplot]

I prefer Lara Cassia.

Other options as well as Clara, Clarissa, Cressida:
Alanna, Christabel, Corinna, Tamara?

[welovesausagedogs]

You can't have Saskia and Cassia is like a tongue twister. I also don't think Cassia is as nice a name as Saskia.

I would go for Lara Cassia

What about Saskia and Lila??

[MarySA]

I like Clarissa and also Cassandra. She could Be Cassie for short. I think I prefer Cassia to Lara.

[BBQJuly]

Cassia and Saskia too similar IMHO.

If choosing Lara, I'd use Larissa as full name.

How about Carina, Laura, Louisa, Clarissa, Coralie?

[CarriMarie]

I think you should stick with Lara Cassia - they sound lovely together.
