I heard this name recently and thought it was pretty. What does everyone think?

Tamara is nice

Means treasure in Japanese but not a human name there.
if you live in the UK then it might be hard to distinguish from The phrase ”Ta, Cara”

Tara with a stutter.

It sounds like a Japanese video game to me.

Google confirms it is Ta-Taka Ki-Kek so not a million miles off.

Is that the name of the foreign exchange student in Friends who was in the I hate Rachel Green club with Ross and Brad Pitt?

I imagine a spicy sauce

It’s not an especially nice sound - tacky etc

I know a woman called Tiakora. She is Māori. Never heard Takara.

Godzilla's nemesis.

I think it may be one of the whales in the Blackfish documentary?
I like it, though probably wouldn't be brave enough to use it

MrsSlocombesCat · 02/12/2023 12:26

My son had a friend called this. I always thought the name was odd and sounded like tachycardia.

RachelGreensHair · 02/12/2023 12:24

No.

TrumpetOfTheMatriarchy · 02/12/2023 12:21

terrible, sounds like some bad sci fi character

Mochudubh · 02/12/2023 12:19

Takara the Otter?

Also sounds like a Goa'uld name from Stargate.

thefallen · 02/12/2023 12:19

Bad.

fitforflight · 02/12/2023 12:19

It's a Japanese toy company, so I'm gunna go with no.

ChoupetteTheCat · 02/12/2023 12:17

Sorry I don't like it. Sounds like an athlete's food cream to me.
