Get ready to celebrate all the amazing people named Clara on National Clara Day, which falls on January 4! This day is dedicated to honoring and appreciating individuals who bear this beautiful name. The name "Clara" has Latin origins and means "clear" or "bright", and it's been a popular choice for baby girls since the late 19th century. Famous Claras throughout history include nurse Clara Barton, writer Clara Hughes, and scientist Marie Curie (whose birth name was actually Maria but she changed it to the French version of her middle name, Claire). So let's celebrate all the wonderful Claras out there and spread some brightness and clarity in their honor!
