I have an Ivy Rose Alice, and an Orla Ann. I need a third name!

I can't have Clover as it was vetoed (by DH and on here!) as was Heidi (surname doesn't work with it).

I would like a name with a literary connection- any suggestions please? I'm totally stuck!

Some brilliant ideas! Thank you!

Of all of them, I like Edith, Cordelia and Beatrice- but all of them are being vetoed Angry.

Thanks for your help, I think I'm searching for the impossible and will have to just pray this bump is boy a boy and negate the need for another girl name.

Ada, daughter of Byron (there's your literary connection). Also she was amazing.
