HELP!!! Can’t think of a girls name

I’ve just found out I’m expecting a little girl. Which is wonderful but I had totally convinced myself it was a boy - and had my heart set on Ezra. It just felt right. There isn’t a single girls name that makes me feel like that.
I was wondering if based on the boys names I love I could have maybe some suggestions for my ‘style’
For boys I love:
Ezra
Reuben
Blake
Caleb

I know they’re biblical but that’s not at all a theme I like them because in my mind they are slightly different without being too out there if that makes sense.
For a girl, I’d like something pretty but that packs a bit of punch!

Think you just bite the bullet and go with Macbeth!😂

If you think you might have more children in the future I’d steer clear of anything that sounds like Ezra (like Eliza) as you wouldn’t want to rule out being able to use it one day. It’s a lovely name.

Other thoughts (sorry for duplicates):

Phoebe
Sadie
Dinah
Lucia
Frida
Heidi
Jessica
Sula
Nova
Ottilie
Arietty
Athena

@Prettylittlelady we have some crossover taste, I’ve used one of your boys names on one of my twins and one of your others is on my list. Why not use Ezrah / Esrah for a girl? Female versions of the name you love, as you have plenty other boy names to fall back on should you ever need them. I know a girl called Esrah, lovely name and different but not bonkers X

Isra? Ines? Or if you might use Ezra in future, then go for something different.
