Thank you Oxford dictionary of names =)

Cara ♀ 20th-century coinage, from the Italian term of endearment cara 'beloved' or the Irish Gaelic vocabulary word cara 'friend'. MEANWHILE..... Kara ♀ Variant spelling of Cara. So we need not be confused on which spelling to use People =) Ah ha! If only I had known this before. I could have been pompous and annoying about my name to all those haughty Karas!
