Alternatives to uber popular names!

Girl Names
1

I love all of the top baby names, my favorites being [name]Sophia[/name], [name]Ava[/name], [name]Emily[/name], [name]Olivia[/name], [name]Isabella[/name]/[name]Isabelle[/name].
With my second baby girl due soon, I’m having a hard time finding the just the right name, and although I love all the names above, I don’t want her to be another [name]Emily[/name] in a class full of them… I grew up being one of many [name]Meaghan[/name]/[name]Meghan[/name]/[name]Megan[/name]'s, and spelling differences made absolutley no difference in the name. I was still always [name]Meaghan[/name] G.
I was wondering what you all would suggest for alternatives to these names, and any other populer name alternatives you can think of.
Here’s some I’ve heard, share your thoughts please!

[name]Sophia[/name]- [name]Serafina[/name], [name]Sabina[/name], Sofiane/Sofiana
[name]Ava[/name]- Avelie/Avalie, Avelia
[name]Emily[/name]- Emiliese, [name]Emelyn[/name], [name]Amelie[/name]
[name]Olivia[/name]- [name]Ottilie[/name], Liviana
[name]Isabella[/name]/[name]Isabelle[/name]- [name]Adabelle[/name], Rosabel (I love [name]Rose[/name], but not alone), [name]Annabel[/name], [name]Arabella[/name]

I have to mention my love for the name [name]Rose[/name], but I can’t stand it alone! I really like Rosabel, [name]May[/name] [name]Rose[/name] or [name]May[/name]-[name]Rose[/name] as a double first name, what do you think?

I’ll also say that my first daughters name is [name]Hayden[/name] [name]Anne[/name]-[name]Claire[/name], and we have a 2 syllable very French last name… I’m not to into matchy names, so staying to close to the style of [name]Hayden[/name] isn’t really that concerning for me.

Thanks for you help!!! I really need it…

British [name]Baby[/name] Names did a post on surnames derived from feminine names. [name]One[/name] of the options presented was Amelot, which can also be smelled Emelot, that I think could make an interesting alternative to [name]Emily[/name].
