Three syllable girl’s name

I think we may have finally come to a decision about DC3’s first name and middle name.
We want her to have 2 middles names (like our other DCs) as we have a short, one syllable surname and it just flows better with 2 middle names!
We’ve chosen 2 quite short names for her first name and middle name, and have tested out a few 3 syllable names with them. The 3 syllables works best with our surname but none of the names are screaming at me as “the one”.

Suggestions welcome!!

Some lovely suggestions Smile
We both like more old-fashioned names. One of our favourites was Evangeline, but it’s becoming increasingly more popular which makes me less inclined to use it Confused

Kind of similar to Evangeline? Though I know Evelyn is quite popular now, too.

Oooo Isabella fits quite nicely (even though is 4 syllable like Evangeline!)

I love Isabella. I know it’s popular but I think it’s so pretty.

One of mine has the middle name Temperance. Or you could have Charity?

I will see what DH thinks when he gets home later, but I think I may be sold on Isabella Smile

If 3 syllables works better with your last name, what about Isabelle rather than Isabella?
My daughter's name is Chantilly, which is 3 syllables Smile
