Either [name_f]Marceline[/name_f] or [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] (for the nn [name_u]Sasha[/name_u]).
Either [name_f]Natalia[/name_f] or [name_f]Marceline[/name_f]! They’re the most elegant to me.
Marceline is my favourite, it’s strong and elegant.
Julia 
Timeless & beautiful! Second would be [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f].

My top 3 is [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f], [name_f]Julia[/name_f] and [name_f]Natalia[/name_f]!
These three names are very elegant, sophisticated and international. [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] is a strong, powerful and timeless choice. [name_f]Julia[/name_f] is sweet, melodic and colorful. [name_f]Natalia[/name_f] makes me think about winter and holidays, which I love. I imagine a gentle, fun and brave girl/woman.
[name_f]Julianna[/name_f] is a gorgeous name, but nowadays, I prefer the classic [name_f]Julia[/name_f].
I love [name_f]Natalia[/name_f] -grounded yet full of flair
I like [name_f]Julia[/name_f] and [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f].

Marcelina! It sounds so fresh and is unique where I am.
I like how lyrical it is and the nicknames [name_u]Mars[/name_u] and [name_f]Cella[/name_f]. I might also call her [name_f]Marcella[/name_f].
I’m interested by [name_f]Nela[/name_f]. Is it short for [name_f]Cornelia[/name_f]? I know a little [name_f]Cornelia[/name_f] nn [name_f]Nela[/name_f] and I really like it. I would prefer the full name [name_f]Cornelia[/name_f] nn [name_f]Nela[/name_f] though.
Julia is my favorite. [name_f]Natalia[/name_f] comes in second.

Alexandra! Beautiful, underused classic
Julia. Then [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f]. Both are beautiful names. The contraction [name_u]Alex[/name_u] is a bit common and unisex - [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] works well with a one or two syllable last name.

Julia! It’s so cheerful and musical and it’s endured the ages. You could sing her name, it’s got such natural melody.
Natalia would be my second choice. It’s similar to Julia, but I don’t like the “Nat” sound at the beginning (as it makes me think of gnats) and I actually prefer Natalie to Natalia as Natalia also makes me think of Nutella 
Julianna is too much for me personally and I just prefer the simple and classic Julia anyway. Same goes for Marcelina. And Alexandra is again too much and I don’t like the harsh “x” sound.
Unfortunately, Nela and Marceline are just not appealing to me in sound, though they’re not too much. Although I just read you post history and if you’re Irish, then Nela would make a beautiful choice as it honors your Irish heritage!
