Louisa by a mile.
Quite like Maria and Caitlin too.
Would avoid Isabella/belle, Eva, Maisie, Sophia, Georgia and Amelia due to overuse. Millions of them.
The rest don't flow well at all.

Maria. Very pretty and underused for a child.
If I hear another Eva Ava Sophia or Amelia. I swear I'll scream

Maria, Louisa or Caitlin (in that order) if you want to go a little unusual, strong and feminine.

Amelia and Georgia are really nice with your surname and very pretty.

Not keen on the others. It's personal opinion though :)

I personally would avoid the names that end in -ie or -y as I think they sound a bit sing-songy with your surname - I would go for a name ending in -a or a consonant.

Of your names, Louisa is my favourite - so pretty! But Amelia, Georgia, Eva, Maria and Sophia all work well too.

Love Elle and Caitlin.
The rest are too popular IMO or I just don't like them.

Caitlin's the only one that flows properly into the surname. I like it best too.
