Any votes on a favourite between Cora or Stella?

Also open to alternatives with a similar vibe!

Love Cora!
dont mind Stella.

I think Stella’s a really hard name, Cora is much softer

Stella by a long way!

I really don't like Stella as a name, I can pinpoint exactly why though!

I like Cora better.

I also like Sara, pronounced 'Sah-ra' but so many folk assume it's 'Say-ra', sadly.

Prefer Cora.
Stella is ok but I find it quite hard/harsh sounding.

I’ve got a Stella. Love the name. Got all the Stella Artois jokes over by the end of KS1. Bit of a rough time being a teenager when Interstellar was released. She loves her name. Unusual without being way out.

Love Stella, but Cora is also nice. Alternatively, Clara feels like a nice mix between the two?

Stella is my absolute favourite name! 2 boys here but if either had been a girl it would have been Stella. Having said that, Cora is lovely too and would have been high up our list as well!

I like both but vote Stella. Probably depends on your social group but no one I know drinks Stella lager- it’s apparently still the most popular brand in the Uk but god knows how as it never seems to be served anywhere 🤣. In any case I don’t think it would have those connotations amongst their peer group.

Stellas always seem to be quite strong. Cora for some reason reminds me of a Dickensian character who might be about to succumb to TB or similar.

I love them both. I wish I’d stuck to my guns and called DD Stella, it’s a beautiful name.

Cora. Or Coraline/Coral.

Not keen on Stella, associations with the lager and it just feels like a 'heavy' name to me.
