Help! Need a girls name ending with 'la', but not Ella...

Ideally, four syllables, so something like Arabella, but not Arabella as DH vetoed that :(

The la on the end just sounds really nice with our surname, so keen to find something to get me over being banned from Arabella, which sounds perfect!

Ok mumsnet, all hopes on you as tearing hair out and drawing a blank here...

Gabriella (she will be called Gabby)

Nigella if you think she will have the haunches for it.
