What works with the MN Rachel?

Currently pregnant with DC#2 and all I know is I'm having a baby! If it's a girl, it's important to me that Rachel is the middle name as it has special significance and DH is on board with this. What first names would work? Love Clara but think it sounds a bit clunky followed by Rachel (not sure how important this is to be honest but looking for other alternatives). Thanks in advance.

Cordelia Rachel is lovely. I would go for something a bit more delicate and feminine to balance out Rachel.

I think Clara Rachel is lovely.
If you want alternatives suggested, can you give us a clue?
