Mara is a name in several cultures, (Mara, I believe, is the hebrew name from which we derive Mary, Marie, Maria, Mariana, ect.)

I think it is also a Japanese name, but I'm not sure about that one.

I think if you're going to name a kid after a SW character, use a normal Earth-esque name like Luke, Leia, Ben, Mara, or Jacen.
And serioulsy avoid names like Greedo, Qui-gon, Jolie Bindo, Bastila, Carth, Mithraw'nuruodo, Anakin, or Mon Mothma.
