I need help with girls names...

Only 7 weeks to go and can’t think of a name that I love. Boys names there were lots that I adored but girls I just can’t quite seem to fine the one.
The names I like are - Grace, Eva. Aurelia, Autumn but none of these have got a very good reception as in they are too ‘popular’ mostly is the comment I get.
Surname is the general name for a winged animal so that kind of rules out certain names as the name itself is a noun.
I’d like some suggestions of beautiful names that are not overly popular but see recognisable and not too hard to say/spell.
I’d like the middle name to be Evelyn (obviously not with Eva) as this is after a family member - it won’t be used a first name, that has already been decided.

Thank you in advance, really hoping I can find the one.

I wouldn't say those names are too popular, not if you look at popular girls names lists. I would go with one of the four you have shortlisted.

Adelaide
Imogen
Annie
Charlotte

Aurelia from your list is lovely and not popular.

Maybe something like, Flora, Camilla, Rosemary?

I love Autumn!! That's not overly popular, it's so sweet and different imo. I've never heard of anyone called it. 7 weeks so that makes the baby October? Beautiful time to have an Autumn baby :)

I like Autumm but I think it sounds odd with your surname. I would go for a name with more syllables. I think Aurelia is the best from your list. Cordelia and Cecilia would also work nicely.

Ophelia
Octavia
Claudia
Martha
Alexis

Autumn is beautiful but yes might not go with your surname. And the other names are very very popular. How about;

Fleur
Marianne
Katherine
Frances
Anna/ Annie
Clara

I like Frances "general-name-for-a-winged-animal".
