Which of these 4x girl names?

Really torn, looking for general consensus and some advice. We already have 1 girl (strong Irish name, husband is Irish), 1 boy - fairly generic name.

Torn between these:

Grace

Annie (husband wants Ann or Angela (no way [sorry to all Angelas]) but I think I could get away with an Annie, even if she was registered as Ann.

Nancy

Orla (Irish connection again, but don't want to overdo this either - the baby will be born in the north west, and other than the father being Irish there is no other connection!!).

Don't ask about a middle name yet! The above is difficult enough!

Nancy is by far the nicest.

Orla or Anna? Annie sounds very juvenile. I can't imagine calling a grown woman that.

I like Nancy.

I'm also going to agree with Nancy, pretty!

I think Nancy is nice too

Unless you are planning any more babies just use all three!

Nancy Orla Ann [Surname]
That’s Orla and Ann as middle names, obviously! Not as a triple-barrelled first name!
It flows nicely and keeps her Irish connection in there.
