[quote=Anonymous]In the US, I think people will pronounce Lara without the rolling R, even if you correct them. So I would only use it if you're OK with her name having that pronunciation among Americans. (Obviously, your parents or others from their country would pronounce it with the rolling R.) I think the Lara/Laura confusion is easier to overcome. As a child, I knew a Lara (where Lar- rhymes with far and car) and also a Laura (where Laur- rhymes with more), and it was no problem.[/quote]
