Any thoughts? I keep coming back to it but still unsure!

Love it. A Romanian friend has a daughter Coralina, Cora for short, it sounds lovely with her rolling RRRRs

Love it and agree that Cara is no where near as pretty.

Chunkymenrock · 04/06/2021 13:03

Awful and frumpy. I just think corer (kitchen equipment.)

Stichintime · 04/06/2021 12:57

Hate it. Ugly name.

LeafBeetle · 04/06/2021 12:56

I like Cora a lot

LostThings · 04/06/2021 12:56

I like it, but would be slightly worried that in years to come people would think I only chose it because my baby was conceived during the time of Coronavirus. Probably only me who thinks like that tbf!

I dislike it. It makes me think of an apple corer.

I like it but also prefer Cara/Kara but I would because it’s DD1’s name. Not dated or cheap and she’s not a dickhead Hmm

I love it. My daughter would have been called Cora but it was already my Nieces name. It's beautiful, unusual, timeless and ageless.

Prefer Cara personally
Eww no. Cara is dated and cheap sounding Envy

Cora is a beautiful name and popular in Ireland, meaning good and virtuous.

Every Cara I’ve ever met has been a complete dickhead and tougher than a dogs tongue

I loathe the hard "Oh" sound.

Prefer Cara personally.

RedSquirrelsAreAwesome · 04/06/2021 12:31

I like it, lovely name.

SpongebobNoPants · 04/06/2021 12:30

Love it
