Girl name to go with Connor

I'm currently pregnant, don't know the sex. Boy names I've got plenty of, but I'm struggling for girls. I like the name Maggie but it doesn't go with my sons name? So I need some suggestions for girls please.

Maggie goes fine with Connor.

Or Niamh, Orla, Aoife are similar to Connor in being middle of the road Irish names.

Like maple /earther/ ethel/ lavender/ wendy /adaline /oak /willow/ robin.

I know a couple called Connor and Maeve. I think they sound good together, but so does Connor and Maggie/Margaret.

Both of the Connors I know (one adult, one a toddler) have sisters called Eliza.

Yes, I've recently added Eliza to the list

I would put Margot or Margaret on the birth certificate and have Maggie as the nickname. This way she's got choices for when she's older and wants to be taken more seriously.

Maggie goes fine but it doesn't need to be

Also do co aider Margaret or Margot for the BC.

Love Conor - top of my list if I were to have a boy!

Maeve would be my top choice but Maggie goes perfectly fine too
