I am in love with the name Lara for DD1. DH likes it but I'm not sure he's as in love with it as I am.

What do you all think of Lara and are there any other short, sophisticated and less popular names that would compare to Lara? (None starting with a hard C please)

Yes Lara is beautiful. And always reminds me of Lara’s Theme.

Lara is very pretty and elegant but is growing in popularity and will often get misread as Laura.

Consider these alternatives:
Ada
Anya
Aria
Belle
Esme
Halle
Lyla
Luna
Maya
Mya
Tara
Zoe

Love the name Lara. And the beautiful piece of music, “Lara’s Theme” from Dr Zhivago.

I like the name Lara- my daughter is Lana, quite similar.
