My first baby is due next week and I would really value any thoughts or preferences about these names. Thank you. Smile

Depends on the middle name?

I love Clara, a beautiful name.

Not so keen on Cora, sounds very harsh to me and reminds me of the French supermarket chain, also US backwoods Cora-Beth.
I like the meaning of Cara, but think of it more as a nn for Caroline.

Clara, Cara, Cora would be my order, but they are all nice.

I love the meaning of Cara and it sounds so elegant, plus there is one in my ten year old son's class who is a lovely girl so that would be my preference.

Second would be Clara. I don't like Cora at all.

I know a toddler Cara - strong enough name for a grown up but cute on a little one.

My niece is a Cora and she's the only one I've met (she's 15)

My preference is Cara, it's lovely. Cora is nice but getting quite popular.

Cora sounds like a device for cutting fruit!
