Had a change of direction re girls names. We have a dd Faye so need a girls name to go with Faye. I like short, fairly unusual names so any suggestions welcome. so far I like Ada, Merryn and Greta...

Ada Wren is lovely. Tell DH he is wrong!

Anna isn't plain imo. It's really lovely, classy and somewhat underused.
Anna Wren is really nice :) Ada and Greta are also nice, but I do prefer Anna, tbh
