Names like AMARA

so, this is my favourite name, always has been, but my sister just used it for her DD born in July. Frustrating, but one of them things! So do you have any suggestions for similar names?
I don’t mean sounding similar as such, more names that have the same pretty, slightly exotic feel to them.

TIA

I loved Amara until I saw it on the side of my cousin's caravan- it's a caravan brand!

I love Saraya which is similar.
