A sister for Nora

Totally outing myself but never mind. Just found out DC2 is a girl so looking for names to go with big sister Nora. My favourites Tessa and Rosa have been vetoed, I've managed to get some traction on Lucy and Lena but I'm not sold. Any suggestions gratefully received. Not top ten and not a noun (doesn't work with surname). I quite like scandi sounding names but have zero heritage (both Welsh)

Lena fits the bill well because it has a cuteness factor too. Tess also.

Would you like another name ending in - a?
