Girls name to go with sibling Iona

Hi looking for baby girl names please. Partner and I struggling to agree on many. Ideally I would like another Scottish name to go with Dd1 (Iona) but doesn't need to be Scottish.
Names we like ( but not sure we love ) are Zoe or Eilidh. Also like Emily but feel it's too popular and would like a less common name but not one that too unusual either. Suggestions please!

Congratulations Flowers

Iona is a lovely name. What about Katie? It's hands-down one of my favourite girls names and it goes nicely with Iona.

Thanks everyone. Still not sure but will keep thinking

Inneedofadvice20172234 · 26/06/2017 20:21

I think you need one starting with a 'solid' letter like an m or g

How about machara or maisie?

Inneedofadvice20172234 · 26/06/2017 20:21

Or grace

GinSwigmore · 26/06/2017 20:37

Much as though I love Shona, you can't with Iona. Shana is nice.
Iona and Skye if keeping with island names.
Iona and Isla if you don't mind the alliteration.
Iona and Heather also sound nice.
Iona and Freya probably my favourite.

Alisa goes beautifully with Iona

GinSwigmore · 26/06/2017 20:50

^ pronounced like Eliza? ( el-eye-zuh)
Iona and Eliza do have a certain ring, yes.

Naomi?
Iris?
