Clara or Rosanna?

Really struggling to pick one!

I prefer how Clara sounds but feel Rosanna has better nickname potentials.

Thoughts?!

They’re both really nice. For me I prefer Rosanna but I do look after lots of little Rosies, Rosie is quite popular at the moment.

Both gorgeous!! I do love Clara though ❤️

I prefer Clara if you’re planning on pronouncing it Klah-ra but prefer Rosanna if you’re going for the Clare-uh pronunciation for Clara.

Clara. Nicknames should not be planned; they arise spontaneously. Why not just call her Clara?

Clara is beautiful

How about Rosara. Bit of both there lol

TippyToesKnows · 14/10/2022 18:58

Both so lovely I couldn't choose! Rosanna Clara is nice... but then, so is Clara Rosanna...

Rosanna!!!!!! Just beautiful 😍

Clara is very overdone where I am.

Clara

Clara is very elegant I think. No nicknames and I think very rare!

Rosanna, she'll have a song people will sing at her which is always fun (my friend Rio will tell you it's not fun) but Rose/Rosie are lovely, if not overused. Sorry, that probably doesn't help. Clara in and of itself is a better name but Rosanna is probably the best of the two.

Rosana is very poetic

Mistywindow · 14/10/2022 19:35

I know someone with daughters with both of these names!

I prefer Clara. Also love Rosa.

stillsleeptraining · 14/10/2022 20:28

I love both of these!

DramaAlpaca · 14/10/2022 21:56

I prefer Rosanna, it's my favourite of all the Ros- names. Clara is nice too.

OP, you say you like the sound of Clara best. I think you might regret it if you don't use it.

Ellmau · 15/10/2022 22:44

I think Rosanna is much prettier, but if you prefer Clara go with it.

What about Clarissa?

ofwarren · 15/10/2022 22:47

I prefer Clara. I'm not keen on Rosanna at all.

Luredbyapomegranate · 16/10/2022 01:30

Rosanna

Clara is pretty popular

PinkSunflowers · 16/10/2022 18:51

Thanks everyone! We will keep both options and I guess we will know in the moment which one suits the baby more :)

These were my top two contenders if DC4 had been a girl. I couldn't have decided between the two.

Whatalife88 · 16/10/2022 20:20

Rosanna

DeeDeeDaisy · 16/10/2022 22:13

I started a thread earlier as we can't decide between Rosa or Rosanna. Clara was one of my favourites too but DH prefers the other two. But I love Clara.
Sorry, no help as I'm in a very similar dilemma but I'm just here to say both would be great picks for your DD!
