(Slightly off the beaten track but, “Kirsten”. When I read it I don’t know whether to sound it out - even in my head - like Kersten or Keersten.)

[Luce NDs]

All pseudo forms of sounding out what is silently in your head ... said that there is no one there ... but where else could they be unless out there as commoners ... should freed thought can cause dissonance in other places ... cognizant? Said to be a sin disturbing what rests quietly ... and thus it rises wondering ... why? Because so many sleep right trough a power destroying them as they were laid out ... a dissembling mote?

The one I knew (former co-worker) went by the former but I have also heard the Norwegian opera singer Kirsten Flagstad pronounced the latter. So probably depends on language.

The Scandinavian pronunciation is the latter, for sure. Though I’ve known people who have gone by both pronunciations, respectively, whose families spoke English as a first language.

Clara/ Klara pronounced somewhat differently. Although with a British accent Clara sounds very much like Klara.
