Cara

Comments (Usage Only)

Apart from the meaning "face" in Spanish, it also means "expensive" in its feminine form.EXAMPLE || that wallet is very expensive = esa cartera es muy CaraIn Spanish speaking countries avoid the name because it sounds like a joke, otherwise it's okay.

My parents came across my name when reading CARA at the Indy 500 (a car race). There's a racing association with the abbreviation CARA. At the race one year I got earrings with CARA on it and a checkered flag.

It seems that Cara was used traditionally by Jews around the Mediterranean basin whose ancestors lived in Spain until the late Middle Ages. This is from "The Jewish Encyclopedia" (1904):
"They bear exclusively Spanish given names, as Aleqria, Angel, Angela, Amado, Amada, Bienvenida, Blanco, Cara, Cimfa, Comprado, Consuela, Dolza, Esperanza, Estimada, Estrella, Fermosa, Gracia, Luna, Niña, Palomba, Preciosa, Sol, Ventura, and Zafiro; and such Spanish surnames as Belmonte, Benveniste, Bueno, Calderon, Campos, Cardoso, Castro, Curiel, Delgado, Fonseca, Cordova, Leon, Lima, Mercado, Monzon, Rocamora, Pacheco, Pardo, Pereira, Pinto, Prado, Sousa, Suasso, Toledano, Tarragona, Valencia, and Zaporta."
