Our baby girl is 2 days old and we still haven't settled on name yet. Currently swinging between Lara ( Larissa) and Cora. Which do you prefer? Need to settle on something asap.

I love them both! I think I prefer Cora, but think I will be in the minority. I mentioned it in a thread here once and it got shot down. Hmm

Lara for me, but Cora is lovely too!

Lara....a big regret of mine that i didn't use it.

I do like cora too though.

Love Cora!

Cora

Lara is lovely.

Not so keen on Cora, it sounds old to me, though maybe that's just because of Cora in Eastenders!!

Cora, it's lovely.

Lara

Lara

I love the name Cara, blend of the two.... how about that?

Out of Lara and Cora I think I prefer Lara. Cora is having a "moment" right now but might date badly. I like both though.

Lara.
Cora reminds me of a device that removes the cores from fruit!

SoulTrain · 13/10/2013 20:12

Love both of them!

Rhubarbgarden · 13/10/2013 20:13

Lara.

Clargo55 · 13/10/2013 20:13

I love Cora. Not keen on Lara.

Wishfulmakeupping · 13/10/2013 20:13

Cora :)

invicta · 13/10/2013 20:14

Lara/larissa

sapphirestar · 13/10/2013 20:14

Cora but probably because Lara reminds me of a little girl who hit me over the head with a bucketful of lego and laughed about it when I babysat her!

TallulahBetty · 13/10/2013 20:16

Wow i can see your dilemma! Both gorgeous

Don't like either.

Make your choice from how you felt when someone chose one. If you were disappointed then use the other one!

Viviennemary · 13/10/2013 20:20

I definitely like Cora best. Bt also Coralie and Corrine.

2andout · 13/10/2013 20:20

Another vote for Lara here. Have you decided yet??

Floralnomad · 13/10/2013 20:23

I was also going to say Coralie .

LaundryFairy · 13/10/2013 20:24

What about Carla? I've always loved that name and it combines sounds from both.

ginzillas · 13/10/2013 20:26

Cora. Love it.
