I keep seeing it suggested on threads, and was wondering of it's particularly fashionable atm...

I have only ever come across one and she will be in her 30's now.

I think Clara is probably more popular.

Also like Cora and Carla.

There are a few Caras about in Ireland. I wouldn't say it was popular exactly but I do know of two.

Cara will probably become very popular due to Cara Delevigne, the 'it' model of the mo. it means friend in Irish.

I very nearly called my DD Cara, but at the last minute went for a different name. After she was born I met 2 babies called Cara, both born within a couple of months of her. Other than that I know 1 Cara and 1 Kara, who are both in their early 30's. I think it's a pretty name with a nice meaning, and it's still on my baby name list. :)

I know one in her 30s and one who just turned 1 I think. I quite like the name but wouldn't use it as the one who's in her 30s is a bitch Smile

It may become popular as Cara Delevingne is everywhere at the moment.
