Baby girl name

Hey!
I really need help with picking a baby girl name! There are a few that we like so far:

Ailsa
Aila (ay-la)
Hattie
Bonnie

We live in Scotland so would quite like a Scottish name but doesn't matter if it's not. What are peoples opinions on these names??

Hattie short for Harriet is nice.

I absolutely love the name Hattie

@alexdgr8 thanks for the suggestions! Although not really my cup of tea, I find all of the names quite old

Aila is my favourite (I live in Scotland too - trying to find a Scottish boy’s name just now). I know Isla spelt the other way is very popular just now though but it is lovely

there are many fine Scottish names.
what about Fiona, Margaret, Moira, Kathleen, Elizabeth, Susannah, Harriet, Clementine, Millicent, Esther, Judith, Roberta, Isabelle, Antonia.

don't like them.
first two no idea how to say.
second two sound like dog's names.
