Main character name

Hello, about a week ago I came on here asking which names you liked best from a very long list and I got a tonne of responses, so thank you for that! Now I’ve made a tally of all the names and here are the ones that got 10 votes or more. Most popular by far was [name_f]Violet[/name_f] (24 votes) but I’m still on the fence about it. So here is a new, shorter list, of the names that are still in the running.
Please rank/rate the names you like.

Some of you asked for a character description: she is a 16 y/o girl, blonde hair, green/hazel eyes. She’s the main character in an urban fantasy book (like [name_u]Percy[/name_u] [name_u]Jackson[/name_u]/Harry [name_m]Potter[/name_m]/The Mortal Instruments) and the other most important characters are named: [name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_f]Lilly[/name_f], [name_m]Matt[/name_m] and [name_m]Will[/name_m] (love interest)

Thank you so much in advance!

[name_f]Elle[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f]
[name_f]Anneliese[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Esmee[/name_f]/ Esmé
[name_f]Celeste[/name_f]
[name_f]Eva[/name_f]
[name_u]Skye[/name_u]
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
[name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]/Celia
[name_f]Daisy[/name_f]
[name_f]Nina[/name_f]
[name_f]Sadie[/name_f]
Julliet/Juliet
[name_f]Fleur[/name_f]
[name_f]Hallie[/name_f]

While I love almost every one of these names in and of themselves, especially [name_f]Iris[/name_f], [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], I am hesitant to choose another flower name for you. Because you have two other characters named [name_f]Rose[/name_f] and [name_f]Lilly[/name_f], I might avoid another floral name such as [name_f]Iris[/name_f], [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] or [name_f]Fleur[/name_f] or else it might be too themey. [name_m]Even[/name_m] without that caution though, I would choose [name_f]Nina[/name_f]!! What a wonderful underused gem of a name. And fit right in with your other characters.

Indeed, I was also thinking another flower name would overdo it. Thank you for giving your opinion!
