    Apparently Alara was a Nubian king but most people would recognize Alara as a female name instantly. Think Lara + A or Alana with an R. It's relatively familiar looking, pleasing and easy to spell and pronounce - a fairly attracive name. I think it's a little boring though. It's repetitive having only one wovel and a bit flimsy and insubstantial due to the weak consonants. However there's nothing really wrong with it per se should you like to use it for a girl child.

    I've not heard it call Alara, but I have heard it spelled as Elara. Even still is a nice name.

    It's a very pretty name. I must say I heard the name before but only once.

    Um, When i saw it and i thought you says "Alarm" sorry my bad. But it sound little strange but if you want to name ur baby something different that no one have that or something totally different then go for it, if u want something sound match ur lil girl then maybe pick other 2 or 3 more names and compare them all :)
