Suggestions for names in similar style to Lillian, Alice and Clara?

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for girls' names in a similar style to Lillian, Alice and Clara please? We are hunting for options for DC1 due in Nov, and both seem to like names along these lines- I guess fairly old fashioned, pretty names which are not too frilly is how I would describe them.
Our only other definite contender so far is Anna Caroline. Middle name for any other option will be Joanne.

Any suggestions for names of a similar style/feel that we may have missed? We are looking for something that isn't too popular, but is still familiar if that makes sense. Thanks!

I was about to say Caroline.

How about Audrey, Freida, Hazel, Jane, Laura, Sadie, Theresa, Valerie?
