One syllable girls names

Baby 3 is due soon and we're stuck for a middle name. Other two girls both ended up with one syllable middle names, think Anne or Rose, so we thought it would be nice to continue the theme. But can't think of any!

So far we like:

Grace
Faith
Hope
Joy

Any suggestions?

To add...we're also undecided on a first name, but like Madeleine (Maddie), Sophia, Juliet and Lydia at the moment.

I don't normally comment on name threads, but I saw this one and it made me think, and then realised I could only think of about 5 😁 so I googled it. The first post was this with about 200+ on, the first 100 ish are 'girls' ones, although some seem a bit dubious 😂.
I mean, would you call a child Prim, or True?
But there's some other' normal' nice ones.

Great suggestions, thank you! Really like Pearl now, too. Might consider for first name Grin

I've seen a similar list with so-called girls names on - dubious indeed!! Grin

Rae/Ray - love this as a middle name. Simple but not common and offsets a more frilly/feminine first name.

Love Fleur!
