Choosing a name for our 3rd girl

My husband and I are thrilled to have a third baby girl on the way. But we used up our favourite names on the first two and although have plenty that we like, haven't got a stand out favourite this time. Please comment on our ideas!

We already have a Liesl Evelyn Maria and a Giselle Harriet.

For the third baby, middle name will be Kathleen (we like to choose family names for middle names).

First name ideas are:
Lydia
Heidi
Alina
Helena
Florence
Lavinia/Livinia
Orla

My husband is a Australian born but his parents are Swiss and Polish. I am Australian born but with Irish, Scottish and English grandparents.

Heidi Kathleen Violet

Interesting that so many of you have said Heidi. Ordinary I love the name but @MrsBertBibby has highlighted my main concern.
Really appreciate all your thoughts so far.

I think Heidi works really well with Liesl and Giselle

I think your daughters have gorgeous names and giving them all an L sound ties them together. I think Heidi and Liesl together is a bit Sound of Music. I vote for Helena as it is beautiful and I like the A sound at the end.

Thanks @Snuffkindle yes I agree about Liesl and Heidi together. And definitely like the "L" sounds in my other DDs names 🙂

Alyssa - means princess
Tegan - means loved one.
I think both go with Kathleen & Alyssa goes nicely with your other girls names
