WDYTO the name Allegra? What are some possible nn's? Any combos?P.S. Another Cara question I forgot to ask: Do you think Cara ages well?TYSMIA!

Nobody sings a love song quite like you do
And nobody else can make me sing along
Nobody else can make me feel
That things are right when I know they're wrong

I like Allegra. Unfortunately, most people seem to think it's a little tainted by the allergy med. That could be resolved by placing it in the MN spot, though.The most obvious NN I can think of would be Ally/Allie. Possibly... Legra? There aren't a ton of options for this name.

I like Allegra, but it reminds me of the allergy medicine, which is not so good. The only good nickname I can think of is Ally. I do think Cara ages well.Check Out Blinkyou.com for thousands of custom glitters and layouts

My son takes Allegra.(and I like Cara...just not sure it would age very well, it seems to young for anyone over 15.)

I love Allegra! It has such a nice sound and meaning and general aura of cheerfulness :)I prefer it without a nn, but Ally and Legra could work I suppose.I don't like the name Cara much, but I can imagine it on a person of any age, and I can't see it getting dated.ETA: Reading the other replies, they mention allergy medication? I've never heard of it before so it doesn't affect my impression, but I live in England. If it's really well known wherever you are it might be something to take into account.

It is, but not like certain brand names like Mercedes and Jemima. I think if I met someone with this name, I would automatically think of the medication, but it wouldn't ruin the name for me like Aunt Jemima's did to the name Jemima.

I think Allegra is a really beautiful name!!!Cara? I don't see any reason why it wouldn't age well.
