what i mean is, could you please select form these three which name to slot in? I would like a name that sounds somewhat sophisticated or middle class eccentric

I think Aurelia "flows" best, then Aurora a close second. I prefer Aurora with the other two names, but find it a bit more awkward to say following Sophia.

Anastasia with the first two names gives too many z/s/f sounds IMO, making it flow less well.

I think Anastasia, with the S and Z sounds, fits in better, so the opposite of LaundryLyne's comment. I also like the way the number of syllables works with the combination Hazel Sophia Anastasia (2, 3, 4)

Second choice would be Aurelia. The syllable thing works for this name too.

I dislike the name Aurora anyway, but I also think it doesn't have the sounds in common (L and S/Z) that the other names have to make it flow.

(Pronouncing Anastasia A-na-stay-zha, not A-na-stah-zee-a)
