I like Robyn from your list.

I think Rowan is one of the most beautiful names in the world.

I wouldn't give a UK child a name with an umlaut, personally.

I’d go for Robin - prefer the straight unisex spelling

Rosen (Rozen)
Roslyn

Robyn (Robbie) - ok, prefer Bobbie to Robbie for a girl
Raphaëlle - too frilly, don't like the way it gets said as Raffa-yell
Rowan - quite nice but Roman/Rowan type names v popular for boys
Rain - Raine is more elegant
Ruri (Japanese name not Irish) - think you'll get Ruairi/Rory a lot
Romy - ok
Reva - Reeva spelling better and there are lots of Evas
