Nope. Clara and Clarissa have been family names in the Bartons going way back. In fact, go to this page and scroll about halfway down (http://www.millsaps.edu/records/catalog/2001-2002/financescholarshipsandfinancialaid.html)--you'll see my great-grandmother's name. [Although they misspelled Opa's (great-grandfather Wharton's) name just below it]. They were the parents of my father's father and great-grandfather Wharton was a well-known architect (http://www.cayuganet.org/forthill/bgreen/bgreen.html) who helped design JFK Airport and the IRT.
