Long distance Clara from pigeon street

Clara makes me think of American aunts. They always seem to be called Clara in the old movies.

Heidi first, nutcracker second. Lovely name for a winter baby.

A beautiful, unusual, intelligent and talented girl that I know well. She's lovely, as is her name.

My godmother was called Clara, she was amazing!! She had a shaved head, massive gap in her teeth and wore a huge puffy white fur coat to offset her dark skin - she was wonderful, full of energy and had an infectious laugh!

LinoleumBlownapart · 28/12/2017 08:18

I know a Clara who is 25, three Ana Claras aged 18, 7 and 6 and an Anna Clara aged 7. All lovely girls. I like the name a lot. Nicer than Clair/Claire.

Rustybear - oh my God Ive remembered it wrong for all these years! Can't wait for my DD to be old enough to read the books!

SerenaVDW · 28/12/2017 22:47

DD, who is the only one I’ve ever met.

A girl I was friends with in school who had the most magnificent curly red hair and who was half Peruvian.

She was very funny, a bit strange and utterly beautiful.

Bellamuerte · 28/12/2017 22:52

Reminds me of the character in Back to the Future 3!
