Anglo-French name for DD

DD2 due in January. Husband's French and I'm English. We live in France and are unlikely to move to the UK. Surname is unusual (middle eastern origin). Struggling to find a name that we both like.
Our short list is:
Héloïse
Héléna
Alyssa
Alexandra
Élise

Not convinced by any of them! Looking for inspiration

I'm not 100% sure of the spellibg but I know an Annalise who has French and English parents. I think it's a very pretty name.

I love @TatinaLarina's suggestions, plus Sabine, Anouk, Apolline, sidonie, Mathilde.

From your list I like Heloise best (sorry accents are an issue on my phone). It's very French though, if you are looking for something Anglo-French.
