Can you suggest a compromise name for us?

Hello, I am newly pregnant so its a bit early to think about names but I can't help myself!
Me and my OH seem to like really different sorts of names for girls, his suggestions so far have been a bit 'cutsey' for me, he likes
Daisy
Molly
Maisie
The names I like are
Sophia
Sabrina
Lila
Cora
Verity
Melissa
My OH thinks that my names are a bit 'foreign' sounding and wouldn't suit a child that is likely to be blond and pale.
Can anyone suggest something that would be a middle ground? We both like (but don't love)Isabel / Isobel, so this is one possibility.

Loads of others I'm sure. Don't worry about a compromise yet, just make loads of lists - something will click for both of you.

Ooh one of your list is DD1. How about Rose or Rosa? My dh liked cutsie names and I liked poncy names! We settled on Rose for Dd2.
