Or any suggestions along similar lines?

It needs to be fairly easy to pronounce in Spain where we live, although not necessarily a Spanish name (as we aren't!)

Isla is a bit of a nono as it's an actual spanish word but it is pretty.

Sister to Bertie (Albert) which is why she can't be Alba which I love!

If you like Isla, how about Ayla? Same pronunciation (I think) and easier for Spanish-speakers to pronounce. Of your other names, I like Madeline and Isobel best (though prefer Isabella myself Smile).

I love Lucia. In Spanish the pronunciation is Lu see ah which sounds lovely to me.

Madeline seems to be quite a popular name at the moment.

I say Harriet

Got to be Madeleine (but not Madeline).
