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.
