For a girl what about Laurie? For a boy Lewis is lovely.

I like Livia, it's lovely and nicely different. I like Olivia but there are far too many around now so that's a nice take on it!

Lena, Leni (both could be potential nicknames for Helena or used on their own).

Louisa, Lara.

I really like Larissa for a girl. Or Lydia.
And Lachlan for a boy.
