Sister for Astrid

Hello all,

I’d be really grateful for opinions on the following as names for Astrid Iona’s wee sister !

We love old names. I’m Scottish and DH has Norwegian heritage (distant), we have a Norwegian surname starting with an “Oar” sound.... first names ending in consonants are much easier to say when running into our surname...

Here are our ideas!

Brianna
Arwen
Ramona (DH not fully sold on this...)
Corinne/Coryn
Yvaine
Merryn
Marnie

Nova? Sticking with the theme

Tabitha Fae would be lovely. Tabitha means "graceful" while Fae means "from the faeries".

My niece is Synnøve: it means gift of the sun.

I think Corinne is the nicest. Corin is a boy's name.

Ursula came straight to mind egg. I saw the OP, but Elin and Merryn are 2 of my most favourite girls names.
