What names go with...?

We've got an 18mo named Jemima Rose and another girl on the way.

We're a bit stuck on names so looking for some advice on the following, or suggestions for other names that work with Jemima:

Matilda
Annabel
Abigail
Camille

I think they all go well with Jemima and love the first three. Less keen on Camille.

I know Jemimas with sisters called:
Florence
Daisy
Camilla
Josephina
Genevieve
Charlotte
Rebecca (though think that's a bit of an unfortunate pair - quack quack!)

Alternatively:
Arabella, Amelia, Alicia, Alexandra, Aurora, Bryony, Beatrice, Bethany, Clarissa, Cassandra, Cordelia, Constance, Delilah, Dorothy, Daphne, Elizabeth, Erica, Esther, Evangeline, Francesca, Felicity, Georgina, Gabriella, Hannah, Hermione, Harmony, Harriet, Henrietta, Hester, Isabelle, Isabella, Imogen, Joanna, Juliette, Katherine, Lucinda, Lydia, Larissa, Leona, Lorelai, Lavinia, Leandra, Melissa, Miranda, Madeleine, Miriam, Margaret, Marianna, Natasha, Natalie, Natalia, Naomi, Olivia, Ophelia, Philippa, Penelope, Rosalie, Rosanna, Rosemary, Serena, Saskia, Sabrina, Sophia, Samantha, Stephanie, Sorrell, Tabitha, Tallulah, Victoria, Vanessa, Violet, Vivienne, Veronica, Xanthe, Zara

Anything that doesn't feature in a Beatrix Potter tale. Smile That's all you need to avoid.

I love Camille it's so underused and beautiful I really don't know why it's not more popular. They sound lovely as a sibling set :)

Martha, Keziah, Susannah, Damaris, Helena, Selina, Rosalind ...

Prefer Camilla (the original Latin version) to Camille (unless you are French, of course) - in the UK, there can be pronounciation issues: Cam-eel? Cam-ill? Cam-ee-yuh ? Cam-ill-uh? etc etc

I don’t know if it’s a Gemma kind of name but my fav for a girl is Scarlette. Of course I had 2 boys! Scarlette May or Faye. I like the name Faye but I always go for May to go with Scarlette so it must be the right one.
