I think the name is absolutely beautiful. I saw it on a movie called "Music and Lyrics". I anticipated spelling my childs name with a K as well because well, I just love the letter K!

I called my little girl Cora and didn't tell anyone that we had it in mind. everyone loves it and we always get lovely comments cause it's so unusual. I love the fact she'll be the only Cora in her class when she starts school. When we registered her birth we were told there had only been 4 Coras in the last 6 years!
