Girls' names: "i" and "e" vowels

Girl Names
1

What are your favorite names for girls with either an “e” or an “i” as the prominent vowel sound?

Our big family has an overrepresentation of the “a” sounds; we’re solid on long “u”; we have an “o”. Now we’re trying to pick a new name for a girl, and I find that to get something that sounds fresh and unique among her siblings, I’m liking “e” or “i” names. My husband and I have a long list we’ve been through many times before—I need to freshen it up.

Here are some names one or the other of us likes, but we haven’t been able to commit yet:

[name]Bethany[/name]
[name]Eleanor[/name]
[name]Elizabeth[/name]
[name]Ellery[/name]
[name]Elodie[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Georgiana[/name]
[name]Gwendolen[/name]
[name]Leah[/name]
[name]Lenore[/name]
[name]Lilian[/name]/[name]Lillian[/name]/[name]Liliana[/name]
[name]Mirabel[/name]
[name]Pearl[/name]
[name]Rebecca[/name]
[name]Vivian[/name]

We’d have already picked a name from one of these if I didn’t worry so much about being trendy/picking a name that’s overused/rising too fast in popularity.

What do you think?

I love your choices. I have several of them on my list too - including [name]Bethany[/name], [name]Eleanor[/name] (nickname [name]Nora[/name]), [name]Lillian[/name] and [name]Vivian[/name]/[name]Vivienne[/name]. All classy names that aren’t too odd but also are not overused. I also love all three of your “G” names, but our last name starts with G so I can’t use them!
