Comments for CHARA:

I like this name for its sweet sound and its meaning. I know a girl with this name and she is one of the most genuine people I know.

CH makes a hard K sound. Like Kara (K -ah as in father- ruh).

It is also pronounced SH-ara.

VictoriaCalledTori is right on this; the Greek version of the name begins with the letter Chi, the letter with which Jesus' title of "Christ" ('Christos' in Latinised Greek) also begins. And "Christ" isn't pronounced "SH-rist", is it? The same logic applies to the name "Chara", QED.

Let me start by saying this is a goofy name, but the meaning is pleasant. English is one of the hardest languages to learn and if you don't know the "Ch" is pronounced three different ways: "K", "Sh","Ch". However, The Greek letter "X", known as "Chi", equals plain "C", therefore Chara=Cara. You decide.
