Middle name for Eliza?

Having decided on Eliza for a girl, we are struggling with the middle name. I desperately want to use a family name, Eva, but it doesn't go does it? It's difficult to say the 2 together because of the ending / beginning in a vowel. Or am I over thinking it - would we use the 2 names together much?

Another family name is Florence, which I quite like but DH doesn't. He wants Lucy.

So we have

Eliza Eva
Eliza Florence (but DH doesn't like so I would have to do some hard lobbying)
Eliza Lucy (I am not sure this goes)

Opinions? Or should we just forget family names and go for something we like? If so what would go well? Almost every girls name we like starts with a vowel so we end up with the same problem as Eva...
