In search of a bridging name

Girl Names
1

Hey berries, we’re looking for a girl name that would sort of bridge my daughters’ more unusual names with my stepson’s name, [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]. We have been brainstorming for a while (well, mainly I’ve been on the hunt and bugging SO about it) and we feel like we need to start fresh and look at some things new.

Here are some of our criteria:

  1. No names beginning or containing the letter “V”, because we have a lot of that sound already in my girls’ names.

  2. 3 syllables at most

  3. No unissex or surname names

  4. Traditional names with a twist or more international names that are easily adaptable into English.

Help us out please?
