I really love several of your choices, but [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] is my favorite with the brother name. it seems to meet all of your criteria quite well.
For you I really love [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f], [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f], or [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]. [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] is my personal favorite though I could understand passing it over to avoid matching initials with brother [name_m]Soren[/name_m]. [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] would be my second favorite here with consideration for the info you’ve provided.
Thank you so much for the excellent input! It seems clear I have several good options (and can probably stop driving myself crazy looking for more), and this guidance is helping to narrow things down.
I voted for [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] as it’s one of my favourites but now that I think about it [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] is perfect with [name_m]Soren[/name_m]!
I voted for [name_f]Eve[/name_f], [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], & [name_f]Vera[/name_f]. I must have missed [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] on my first pass through, or I would have voted for that as well! I truly love every name on that list, but with [name_m]Soren[/name_m] I think [name_f]Eve[/name_f], [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], [name_f]Maeve[/name_f], and [name_f]Vera[/name_f] work best. Beautiful choices.
If it is not too late, I would like to suggest [name_f]Verity[/name_f]. It starts with “V”, is timeless and elegant and has a very strong meaning [name_u]Truth[/name_u]. It is also very underused.
