Hispanic baby girl names?

I have just started a thread to ask opinions on my DH's favourite girl's name: Rose. So I thought I would start a thread with mine. The name is to go with quite a grand Anglo name (think: Palmer-Tomkinson type of name).

Here goes:

Idalia (my favourite - pronounced 'ee-DAR-lee-a')
Valentina
Rosa.

Also, if anybody has any suggestions for other Hispanic girls' names, I would be grateful to hear them.

Please be honest - thanks Smile

The girl I knew was pronounced Bellen.

I think it's a beautiful name (but OP, I think you should stick with Idalia Rose - it's a winner Smile).

Valentina is beautiful, I love Ines too, have you considered Paloma?Smile

Paloma is also very nice and one that I had considered. Actually, I might add it to the Reserve List...

Not keen Idalia but not sure why - possibly because Id sounds hard.

Amalia is gorgeous though!

I loved the Catalan name Merixel (may have been spelt differently), pronounced Medichell. Wouldn't use it though...
