My husband and I are expecting our 2nd little girl and I’m struggling to come up with another girls name I love just as much as the first (Big Sisters name is Julia Grace).
I wanted to ask the community what your thoughts are on the name Clara? Pronounced “Claire-uh”
My husband absolutely adores the name and is completely invested, even lovingly refers to the baby as “Clair-Bear”. Any an all thoughts or suggestions are welcome, asking for positive feedback on what you think of the name Clara (middle name most likely will be Rose). I would say I like “classic timeless” names, a name that would pair well and sound sweet when said naming both my girls in conversation...for whatever reason I don’t know why I’m doubting Clara? Sometimes I think it’s because she isn’t physically here yet? Julia has my heart and her name feels so fitting. I want that connection with the name Clara but I’m waiting to hear something that sparks those feelings for me. Thanks so much! : )
Re: Looking for opinions on the name Clara?
I think if you love the name, correcting a few people here and there won't be a big deal.
I don't think you can go wrong. I'd go with whichever sounds best with your LN (one syllable Claire versus two syllable Clara).
Clara because I know a couple of Claire's and it seems slightly more different. Claire over Clare for the spelling.
