Girls:

Annie
Anna
Anya
Grace (I know it is incredibly popular, but still love it)
Rosa
Rosanna
Roxanna (Roxy and Ronnie connotations now?)
Maria
Zora
Emmeline (seems to be gaining popularity)
Etta (also really like Loretta, but most people I have mentioned it to seem to hate it!)
Roisin
Saoirse
Caoimhe (but would go with Keeva rather than Kweeva)
Aoife
Liadan

Suggestions welcome.

I like flowery names and names ending in 'a' (but not too flowery), but also like short snappy names (e.g. Etta - loved Eve but they are everywhere now) and Irish names (am Irish). DH is Jamaican with Portugese and French roots, so we are a real mixed family and could look at names of all sorts of origins, I guess.

TIA

LOVE Anya and Rosa, both names I would use. Etta is lovely too.
The rest are nice, apart from Roxanna, Roisin and Liadan.

I know a little baby Roselle which I think is lovely and similar to some on your list.
