Help! Need a girls name ending with 'la', but not Ella...

Ideally, four syllables, so something like Arabella, but not Arabella as DH vetoed that :(

The la on the end just sounds really nice with our surname, so keen to find something to get me over being banned from Arabella, which sounds perfect!

Ok mumsnet, all hopes on you as tearing hair out and drawing a blank here...

Mariella? Maybe you could come up with some awful ones to get Arabella back on the table :)

I think Arabella is just as likely to get 'Ella' as Mariella.
Mariella is lovely.
Aniela?

Ariella?

Thanks all! Still just love Arabella most, well jointly with Mariella, but too afraid people would mmediately shorten Mariella to Ella to go near that.

Gerry, how is this so hard?!
