Eliza, Louisa or similar....?

Due DC3 in 3 weeks.

We don't know what we're having (we have two boys), and think we'll go with either Louisa or Eliza if we have a girl (unlikely as we have two boys but need to be prepared!), but I can't chose between the two...

Only problem is I don't like nicknames Lou or Elle/Ella - but I'm not sure as parents you have much control over nicknames anyway!

What are your opinions on the two, and can you suggest anything along similar lines?!
