Interesting! Seems to contain aspects of Clarissa and Bertha, or perhaps Clarissa said with a lisp. I wouldn't use it or expect to see it used.
It is a combination of Clare and Aretha
Ah, thank you! Checked the Popularity stats here, and Aretha only appears to be used in the USA. Not surprising that I didn't think of it. Although I have heard some Aretha Franklin songs, and she seems to be pretty much the source.
Not a fan
I think that Claretha is such a beautiful, unique name!
What are some others?
I like the style if not the name.

I find the spelling weird and very dated. I prefer Claritta.
