4D scan, any names?

Bit of a weird one but I had my 4D scan two days ago and they confirmed we're definitely having a DD, however we are still totally stuck for names, anything calling out to anyone from her picture? This is just for a bit of fun but any suggestions welcome. I want something unusual but not too out there. Currently working with June as a possibility although all my family and friends hate it.

Dorothea case to me straight away

Adorable. Eliza/Ellie/Eliana came straight to my mind. Personally would only name June if born in June, but maybe that's just me.

Chloe - no idea why, just looks like one

She's very sweet.

I don't think babies can really 'look' like any particular name but here are some 'unusual but not too out there' suggestions that have a similar vibe to June in my opinion. (I wouldn't actually use June if all you family and friends hate it. It was very rude of them to say so but I'd be really put off by knowing that everyone who interacted with my baby hated her name Sad )

Averil, April, Ariel, Astrid, Bronte, Bryony, Carys, Celest, Cecily, Coralie, Daphne, Della, Edith, Effie, Esme, Faith, Greta, Hazel, Iona, Ida, Inez, Judy, Jocelyn, Joy, Julie, Lara, Lois, Margot, Mara, Nina, Nadine, Polly, Penny, Rowena, Renee, Sadie, Sally, Sarah, Tara, Tessa, Tamara, Una, Verity, Willa, Yvette

Thank you all so much for your lovely comments and name suggestions. I absolutely love this thread because my name, my middle name Elizabeth and two of my sister's names Alice and Lucy have been mentioned so it's quite nice to know she fits in well with my family Grin. However, my SIL is called Elizabeth and being generous, we don't get on, she's said shady things about the baby already so anything diminutive of that name would not work. Shame because it's a name from both families and I love Betty/Betsy.

I would absolutely love for her to be a Dorothea/Thea, that's my dream name but my DH hates it. Absolutely love Olive as well and Phoebe but both veto'd.

Polly has been mentioned and we kinda like and agree on Holly, Holly June or Holly Aurelia June. This baby naming thing is stressful!
