Clarabeth

A joy to say out loud or see written on a page, the feminine name Clarabeth is a marvelous creation. Formed by joining the monikers Clara and Beth together, Clarabeth is an English title with Latin and Hebrew connections. Clara, the first half of Clarabeth, finds its roots in the Late Latin Clarus, sharing its definitions of "clear" or "bright." When you think of what life with your little one will be like, you'll envision days filled with dazzling and joyful moments. Beth's four letters appear at the end of Elizabeth and the start of Bethany, so it likely carries both of their Hebrew meanings. From "my God is an oath" to "house of figs" and "house of affliction," Beth lends Clarabeth its religious connotations and a reminder to always hold tight to hope.
