Just found out we are having a baby boy in [name_u]January[/name_u]! [name_f]My[/name_f] 2 year old daughter is [name_f]Clara[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]. I am so excited it’s a boy but cannot for the life of me find a name I like and it’s dampening my excitement. I want something similar to clara. Classic, not too common but not frumpy sounding. All of the cute old fashioned names I love are so common now. I meet very few [name_f]Clara[/name_f]’s, a lot of [name_f]Claire[/name_f]’s but hardly any [name_f]Clara[/name_f]’s and I like it that way. Help a mama out!!

Clara is such a beautiful name! It was on my list but my partner really wants a [name_m]Clarence[/name_m] to honor his grandfather. [name_f]Clara[/name_f] was ranked 103 for girls in 2018, and was used for about .15% of babies. Boy names around that percentage of use that go well with [name_f]Clara[/name_f]’s vintage vibe include
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] (.18%)
[name_m]Silas[/name_m]
[name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m]
[name_u]George[/name_u]
[name_u]Maxwell[/name_u]
[name_m]Abel[/name_m]
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u]
[name_u]Jude[/name_u]
[name_u]Timothy[/name_u] (.12%)
If we go further, the popularity curves of [name_f]Clara[/name_f] and [name_u]George[/name_u] are the most similar in shape from 1880 to today, though [name_u]George[/name_u] hasn’t started his reascension up the list and [name_f]Clara[/name_f] started trending in the late ‘00s/ early ‘10s.
I’ll try my best!

Lawrence! Or [name_u]Laurence[/name_u].
[name_f]Clara[/name_f] and [name_u]Laurie[/name_u] just 
Thanks, I love these suggestions! I love [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] but actually thought it was even more common than that, so something further I think about and look into.
Clara [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is just wonderful! I would pair [name_f]Clara[/name_f] with:
Peter
[name_m]Otto[/name_m]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m]
[name_u]Theo[/name_u]

Sorry for the repeats!
I went to check again and I messed up that statistic. It’s used for .36% of babies. It’s popularity is ranked at 44 which in terms of percentage is equal to [name_f]Grace[/name_f] (24) on the girl’s list. When you combine different spellings of the same name ([name_u]Jackson[/name_u] and [name_m]Jaxon[/name_m]), [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] ranks as number 96 (The same as [name_f]Jocelyn[/name_f]) while [name_f]Grace[/name_f] is up at 47 (The same as [name_u]Lincoln[/name_u]). This time I’ll cite my sources so you can check in case I messed up again.
