That was the first name that I thought of too with Maia.

Maia is quite felxible I think - it goes with most names. Combined with your shortlist, it sounds like you might like more European sounding names rather than 'just' British. How about:

Aurelia, Alexandra, Bella, Camilla, Cassia, Cassandra, Clarissa, Cordelia, Claudia, Carina, Danica, Delilah, Emilia, Electra, Elena, Elisa, Francesca, Fenella, Fabia, Gianna, Gabriella, Isabella, Jocasta, Jacinta, Julia, Juliana, Keziah, Katya, Katrina, Liliana, Livia, Leona, Luana, Louisa, Miranda, Mirella, Natalia, Nadia, Nina, Octavia, Ophelia, Paloma, Pandora, Philippa, Rosanna, Ramona, Rowena, Rosina, Sienna, Sylvia, Seraphina, Serena, Saskia, Tamara, Talitha, Tassita, Vanessa, Xenia, Zara

We also had a Sofia which I see you like, she was bonded with Doris and Thebe.

I've C&P part of my post to a v similar, recent thread about a sibling for Maia:

I have a Maia, chosen for the same reasons that you have given in brackets.

I like Nina and Lara from your lists. Sophia/Sofia seems similar too. Sam and Oscar are okay but I think they are in a different style to Maia personally. I dislike Kai.
There are some really good suggestions on the lists above.
I'll give you a few others that we considered for other DC but won't list their actual names. Let us know what you decide!

Girls:
Iris (this has come up several times, I see)
Livia
Adele
Cassia
Julia/ Juliet
Paloma
Camille
Priya

I think other classical or Greek names 'go well' with Maia or anything multi cultural. A few other ideas/ names I like: Athena (or Athene), Ariadne, Chris, Clio, Elena (or Eleni), Eve, Dahlia, Daphne, Dora, Lucia (similar to Lucy but more of an exotic vibe like Maia), Marina, Natalia, Penelope, Rosa, Sabine, Selena, Thalia (prefer this spelling), Tula, Vivienne, Zita.
