As someone with an "-a" name where the "-e" version was super popular in the decade before I was born...I can say that you should definitely look at the two names combined to gauge popularity. That said, I don't think either is so popular to take it out of consideration. Just know you/she may have to say "no, it's Clar-A" some of the time---and some people will just call her Claire anyway.

Yup. I know a few Claires but no Claras.

I think it's a pretty name.

The baby on "Young House Love" is named Clara. This bodes for rising popularity of that name, imho; b/c their FB page alone has over 40,000 followers, many of whom are in the baby-makin' demographic! (Plus, on top of the FB page, they also have a website, a book coming out, etc.)
