[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Karla is a legitimate and established spelling. It is one of those names that has multiple accepted spellings (like Sarah vs. Sara). This is not the same thing as taking Courtney and spelling it Kourtney. People just assume that every name that starts with a K needs to start with a C because of the Kardashians.[b] That family has ruined the perception of K names.[/b][/quote] I've lived in 6 countries. I've seen it spelled with a K, and I know they do that in some areas, but I don't like it. Our neighbor in Warsaw who had a Karla also had an Oliwia. Is Karla a legitimate spelling? Sure. Is Oliwia also a legitiimate spelling? Yes. But they are clunky and ugly in an English language dominant setting. I'm doubling down on the Carla spelling. And I'm sad for you that your world is limited to one in which you immediately assume someone who dislikes "Karla" must be...influenced by the Kardashians. [/quote]
