Tara vs. Terra vs. Tera
I’ve met a few people with the name Tara and all of them have pronounced their name "TEAR-UH" so I’m listing it with that pronunciation. Which spelling do you think looks the best?

I can’t understand why anyone would want to name their child Terror. Where I am from, I have only ever heard it pronounced Tar-uh. I would go with the Tara spelling, because the others just say Terror to me.

Are you wanting tear (from crying) or tear (from ripping)?

My friend Tara pronounces her name like Terr-ah. As how they say the house in Gone With the Wind or the character in True Blood. Tara is either terr-ah or tar-rah. Both are correct.

are you naming her tah-ra or tear-uh. for most people Tara is tah-ra and Terra is tear-uh, Tera looks incomplete.

My name is Terra and I hate my name. I always have(which might not be that long since I'm only 14, but still). I would rather have been named Tara since it looks less ugly on paper, but I think it's too late to change my name by now...

My name is Tara I was named after the hill of Tara in County Meath Ireland. It's pronounced Tar-uh in Irish, my family is Irish and pronounces it like Tar-uh. If you pronounce it Terra then you are simply not pronouncing it the original Irish way.
