Overdue & no girls names!!

We are really struggling with girls names.

Liked Isla, ria (but opted out due to possible bullying as it rhymes with diarrhoea!)
I've been checking on here for weeks & feel like I've seen every name before. Like Faye but husband doesn't (prob wouldn't go with surname)

We want something slightly different as so many nice names out there but lots are so common.
Don't want anything too "out there" either!
Ps seem to like short names (surname is short so maybe need an "a" or an "e" on end of first name)

We've been through a baby names book & couldn't come up with any that would even make it onto a short list!!!

Get the baby name book and wrote down any name you come across that you like - doesn't matter if you don't love it. Then you give the list to your OH to cross off the ones they don't like to make a shortlist of possibilities and keep narrowing it down:-)

Thanks guys but have seen them all before!!
Not into Mia, Maya & Ella etc.
want it to be short but one that doesn't cause confusion as to whether is a boys or girls! Have seen some on here that would confuse! Also don't like names starting with "a"!

Sorry to be so hard to please but have to get it right!
