The name "Lara" is not found in Arabic linguistic sources, and it is likely transferred from another language. One should not name with it until its meaning is known. If it does not contain a disliked meaning that contradicts religion or morals, then there is no harm in naming with it. However, it is preferable to name sons and daughters with good names whose meanings are well-known.
