[Opinions] Pronunciation of Kara?
I saw the very similar message about how to pronounce Tara, and it reminded me of a name I really like - Kara. Do you pronounce the "Kar" like "care" or "car"?

I have a coworker with the same name, she pronounces it "CARE-ah", so I naturally say it that way also.

i pronounce it 'Kar-rah' and I don't see how it could be pronounced any other way. Same with Tara (tar-rah). Then again, I'm from Australia and thats the only way I've been exposed to.
