Expecting a baby girl soon and trying to finalise/narrow down names. I thought I had narrowed down on a name but having second thoughts

Middle name is most likely Violet and the surname is double barrelled

Please hit me with ideas/suggestions

For absolutely no reasoning, I went "Sebastian and....

Monica"

I think that's rather lovely.

Marina would be nice too. And Hester.

What was the name you had narrowed down to?
I think a three syllable first name works well with Violet (which I love by the way!).
How about:
Emily Violet
Jessica Violet
Elodie Violet
Isabelle Violet
Lucia Violet

Anything except Belle.
("Sebastian's Sister" does sound like a band name though).
Luciana the nicest of the PP's suggestions I think. How many syllables in the double barrelling?

I gone with mix of long and short names, because you said surname is double barrelled, but you already have kid with long name. Does length of surname + first matters to you? What other names you like?
