Caroline, Juliet and Saskia are great.

They are all lovely but I especially like Juliet and Clara.

Caroline/Callie - outdated
Emmeline/Emmy - ok. prefer the leen sound to line. Emmy is cute though - proper name in its own right in Germany / Scandinavia somewhere I’m not sure. Google it. (Prefer Emma)
Juliet - ok. better when pronounced with soft t and not ‘ette’ Iyswim
Angela - 55 year old woman.
Saskia - really really like
Isobel - VERY popular but nice name. Prefer the Isabelle spelling personally.
Clara - lovely.

Bottom three win!
Also agree with PP about Eliza!

Caroline/Callie - unexciting but fine
Emmeline/Emmy - nice
Juliet - lovely; you could also try Julianne/Juliana
Angela - very dated; what about Angelina?
Saskia - nice
Isobel - OK, prefer Isabel/Isabella
Clara - meh, reminds me of Dr Who
