Inspiration for a girl's name - if I like these what else might I like?

With just 5 weeks to go until our baby girl is due we still don't have a name in mind.

I love Ottilie and Isobel, what else might I like? Can't use Isobel as BF has just pipped me to the post. Can't use Ottilie as it would be shortened to Tilly, which I love but sister has a Lilly and so too similar. Inspiration needed!

We like names that aren't too popular (so actually probably wouldn't have gone with Isobel for that reason) and that can be shortened with a cute NN. Ideas welcome!

Ottilie and Isobel are both gorgeous! How about:
Susannah - Sukey
Claudia - Didi
Jemima - Mima
Annabel - Annie

I'd use Ottilie, it's beautiful and not too close to Lily.

Or what about Amilie, Coraline, Genevieve, (apologies for the interesting spelling)
