I can’t wait to get all your amazing feedback and ideas here. I have a daughter named [name_f]Gala[/name_f] (Gaul-ah) and we are expecting her sister in 10 weeks.
I have been searching high and low for a name in that vein of unique, simple, real, pronounceable, elevated but unique.
So far we like:
[name_f]Birgitta[/name_f]
[name_u]Blythe[/name_u]
[name_f]Iley[/name_f] or Eiley
Cléa
[name_f]Malley[/name_f]
But we are hoping for more contenders. None of the names I’ve come up with feel like they are strong enough or unique enough to match [name_f]Gala[/name_f].
We appreciate your suggestions!

I think [name_f]Birgitta[/name_f] sounds the best with [name_f]Gala[/name_f]!
Cléa seems to fit quite well, the others seem too ‘normal’ or don’t seem to flow as well. I think Cléa would make a great option!
