I love Mia. Definitely the best on your list. I know way too many little Mayas and don’t even like the way it sounds. Not really a fan of your other names. But Mia is lovely.

Mia - love
Nora - I know soooo many baby/toddler Nora's, so this one was out for me, but I do like it.
Thalia - very pretty but as someone mentioned, very Jewish.
Mara - I don't love this one as much but I don't hate it.
Maya - love
Cora - love

Other names that were on our list:

I know sisters named Maya and Thalia. They have a 3rd sister, Alanna.

I love all three names!

Who mispronounces Maya?

Talia is often Jewish or with accent over the "i" for Spanish-speakers

I've heard two different pronunciations for Mara

Other short names ending in -a, since that seems to be what you're going for...

Ana/Anna
Lila/Lilah
Sela/Selah
Leah/Leia
Layla/Laila/Leila
Maura
Dana
Dara
Ella
Ila/Ayla

These are...not good.
OP, I love Cora, Nora and Thalia. I believe Thalia is Jewish though, if you're not and that matters to you.
There's also Maura and Lara.
