Don't love any girl names

Hi,

Due in about a month with a little girl and struggling to find a name. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions?

My top choice at the moment is Jasmine, but I don't know if I like it enough. I don't like the shortening to Jazz or the Disney connection - but I do like the flower and scent connection.

Other names we have considered and currently discounted:
Isabella - we are both teachers and OH has a bad connection.
Wren - maybe not very feminine and a bit divisive.
Autumn - I kind of like it, but it's also my least favourite season and don't think child is likely to have the colouring to suit it, if that makes sense.
Florence - OH likes it, but just sounds a bit frumpy to me still. Quite a lot of them at the moment I think too.
No names ending in ie/y as it will be too matchy with our son.
Just really struggling to find a name I do love!

For a boy this time it would have been either Reuben or Barnaby.

Thanks for any suggestions or new perspectives!
