Pretty girls names that don't end in an e or a sound...

I'm stuck. Our DD's name ends in a vowel sound and though I love her name, everywhere I go all I hear is more names that end in the same. So this time round I'm wanting to find a name that ends in a consonant sound but is equally pretty. Any ideas?

Wow what a swift response! I do like Imogen but have a cousin with this name. I also like Grace but DH not keen. Vowel ending names I like are things like Amelie, Lila, Ella, Nina.

Thanks everyone - I notice some e and y names creeping in to suggestions Grin . Niamh is gorgeous but I don't know whether it would be a bit of cultural appropriation as we have no Irish heritage.

Is it the vowel sound or look you don't want though?

Verity has an e sound, Giselle has an el sound. Which one don't you like?

Eh? I thought you didn't want names ending in an a sound?
