Can't use
Eleanor
Elizabeth
Isobel
Lucy
Alice
Maria

All names I love and gutted I can't use any of the above but I really can't. Not keen on Louisa, Sophie or Charlotte. Love Eva but it's too popular atm for me to want to use. Love Emma but we have American relatives/may move over there at a later date may not and it's extremely popular over there atm.

So far I have:
Tess
Josephine
Rose

Also like Marina and am open to unusual names as long as they are Latin or European and not modern.

Think Shakespeare heroines! Rosalind, Beatrice, Viola, Helena, Paulina, Imogen, Cordelia, Jessica, Juliet, Adriana, Celia, Cressida, Emilia, Margaret, Miranda, Hermione.....

Away from Shakespeare, there's Louisa, Rosamund, Joanna, Christina, Ginevra, Anna, Alice, Patricia, Mariana/Marianne, Lydia, Susannah, Octavia, Tatiana, Anastasia, Valentina, Valeria, Corinna, Theodora, Artemisia, Diana, Constance/Constanza, Dorothea...

A few of these are not Latin in origin, however, if that really matters.

Marina is very nice.

Tess is great. I don’t think Genevieve has been mentioned yet and it’s got similar sounds to Eva.

Not keen on Josephine it feels a bit wordy.

Tess/ Tessa is beautiful. Love Clara, Claudia, Lydia and Eleanor too. Rose is a lovely name but feels a bit overdone atm.
