Name my daughter!

I have a baby girl on the way and there is not a single name I adore. With my son, the decision was so easy - Ezra - and he suits it perfectly. I’d like something easy to spell/say, that “goes with” Ezra, and ideally not too girly/popular (Sophia, Olivia, Ava, Ivy, Emily, Poppy, Isabel etc)

Names on the list:
Ruby
Gabrielle (would 100% call a second boy Gabriel)
Imogen
Theodora
Honor
Remi
Athena
Naomi
Amara
Maia/Maya

The only one I think I can be almost sure I won't regret is Ruby - but not sure it feels like “the one” (and is also more popular than I’d like). Any critique or suggestions welcome and appreciated!

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Our son is Gabriel and if he was a girl he would have been Amara.

Other names we had were, Dahlia, Amalia, Kora, Anais and Aesara.

Naomi would go beautiful with Ezra. It usually works if you say the names together like you're introducing your children "oh meet my DC they are Ezra and __"

That way you can kind of imagine what the rest of your life would be like and if they sound good together, etc. It's worked for me before

I love Gabrielle.
Also love Ruby, Maya and Honor.
Love Thea, but on its own. Less keen on Theodora.

I think Remi/Remy might be a boys' name.
Love Athena and Theodora
