Girl's names......what else would I like?

I'm stuck......I like somewhat 'older' names but not top twenty names though top 20+ are fine. I just don't really 'love' any names though. DD1 (age 4) is Charlotte (family nn Lottie).

To give an idea of the type of names I like - so far on the list are:
Harriet - DH is unsure about this and even more unsure about Hattie. Plus Lottie and Hattie sound ridiculous.
Imogen - waver between liking it and thinking its viewed as a bit aspirational
Isobel - very safe like DD1
Iriis - but I am starting to go off this name)
India - this is a very recent favourite so I'm on the fence about it).

DH has put forward the names
Tamsin - I waver between loving it and wondering if its a bit hippyish?
Constance. I don't like the thought of having two girls sharing the first initial so I have ruled this one out.

Please feel free to slate the list. As I said I like the names but I don't love them.

Well DD is Isobel so obviously that one is my favourite from your original list, also Lottie & Izzy is very cute

Really really dislike Beth, I always presume it's short for Bethany which is very 90's

Tamsin just makes me think of Tamsin Outhwaite Confused

So I say go for Isobel

Instead of Beth, how about Elizabeth with Beth as a nn? Charlotte and Elizabeth are goegeous!!
