I like all the names on your list except Murron which I strongly dislike.

Thea
Eleni
Jessica
Natalia
Cora
Murron
Anya
Lyra

I love Thea and Murron but I'd spell it Muireann. I think it's a beautiful name. The others are nice too but I'm not mad on Cora. Congratulations btw!

Jessica (favourite by a long way)
Lyra
Natalia
Anya (would've been second place if Anna)

Eleni
Cora
Thea (such a weak, nothingy name)
Murron (ugly name, if Muireann would've been about 4th in the list)

Anya- no
Natalia- I like it
Murron- don't know how to pronounce it but that spelling doesn't look nice
Lyra- really don't like
Cora- on the fence
Jessica- like
Eleni- not sure about this
Thea- really like

Murron sounds waaay too close to moron to my ear.

Is Muireann pronounced any differently?

The name Murron, including the spelling is lifted directly from the movie Braveheart and I've always loved it

2.Anya - exotic and fun
1.Natalia - exotic and elegant
8.Murron - doesn't have a nice sound to me
6.Lyra - nice but trendy
4.Cora - old fashioned but pretty
5.Jessica - classic Shakespearean but a bit 80's
7.Eleni - prefer Elena
3.Thea - lovely but pronunciation issues

Thea
Lyra
Cora
Jessica
Don't like the rest sorry

Don't use Murron. You child will spend her whole childhood being called Moron by mistake or probably on purpose by mean kids.

Anya 2
Natalia 3
Murron 8
Lyra 7
Cora 5
Jessica 1
Eleni 4
Thea 6

Muireann pronunciation can be found in the series' Catastrophe S2 Ep 2 and to be honest proves why it's a lovely name in Ireland only!

We are Scottish so I don't think this is such a problem to be honest. I'm not set on the spelling that I suggested if we do use it so that might make a difference

Thea - my favourite. Gorgeous name.
Anya - lovely
Lyra - lovely
Natalia - it's ok. I prefer Talia.

Cora- I can never like this but I'm not sure why
Jessica - boring
Eleni - all the ones I know are really grumpy old women. It's really put me off the name
Murron - never heard of this but I think it looks really odd and not pleasant

Jessica, Thea and Anya are lovely, Cora and Natalia are OK, Murron is awful (it auto corrects to Mutton).

Murron

Lyra - really like
Jessica nn Jessie - like
Cora, Anya, Jessica - OK
Eleni - nice if you’re Greek, daft otherwise
Natalia - only if you’re Russian, but always think it sounds quite ugly in English
Thea - nothing-y
Murron - What?!

Murron

Lyra - I think this rolls of the tongue so beautifully!
Thea - very pretty sounding!
Eleni - so beautiful, love how it sounds out loud!
Natalia - such a pretty name and Nat is a supper cool nickname!
Murron - I really like this for a middle spot!
Cora - I instantly think of Jessical Biel's character in The Sinner, not necessarily a bad thing but she is a murder (for good reason) in that show
Jessica - a bit overused in my personal opinion by a very pretty name, Jess/Jessie are lovely nicknames
Anya - reminds me of backpacker murder victim Anja Habschied, I'm sorry

Overall, you have some really beautiful names on your list!
