That is my very favorite name. I'm still trying to work on DH with it, but I looooveee Clara and Claire.

I know one Amelia who is 5 years old, and she goes by Millie. So cute! For what it's worth, I work in a job where I see a ton of baby names every day and have actually never seen a Clara or Amelia come across my desk in the last 4 years! :) LittleFox on "A few random name questions" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-few-random-name-questions/page/2#post-678753 Sat, 30 Mar 2013 07:27:00 +0000 LittleFox 678753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I don't know any Amelias IRL, but I also don't know many kids under 3 or 4,which is probably the demographic in which it is most common. cheert16 on "A few random name questions" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-few-random-name-questions/page/2#post-678697 Sat, 30 Mar 2013 05:26:02 +0000 cheert16 678697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Love Amelia!!

It's not that popular here. photojane on "A few random name questions" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-few-random-name-questions/page/2#post-678418 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 21:16:10 +0000 photojane 678418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Claire-a. Must be regional, because I've never heard it pronounced any other way. I have a couple friends with daughters named Clara & they are all adorable. That's good juju, right? I know one Amelia... she's super cute. It was a name I loved, but hubs shot down.

I've never met one before, though. I love the name.

But #30 in popularity is pretty far down on the list. I say Claire-Ah, and my friends who have a Clara pronounce it that way. The only person I've ever heard say "Clahhh-ra" was my British ballet teacher. I work with two Tara's, and one is Tear-ah and one is Tahhh-ra. I always forget which is which.

We haven't told anyone irl but if Lo is a girl she will be Clara. I love it. I don't know any amelia babies personally. kjpugs on "A few random name questions" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-few-random-name-questions/page/2#post-677596 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 11:50:36 +0000 kjpugs 677596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @apis: that would make sense! I hear it is immensely popular and my SIL is religious about it. apis on "A few random name questions" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-few-random-name-questions/page/2#post-677594 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 11:49:59 +0000 apis 677594@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @kjfromnj: I can heartily recommend it, and it might be one of the factors explaining the resurgence in popularity of Amelia, certainly. lovehoneybee on "A few random name questions" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-few-random-name-questions#post-677590 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 11:47:58 +0000 lovehoneybee 677590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Claire-ah.

I had no idea it was that common.
