Sister for Laila

I'm expecting a little girl in June and I'm really struggling with a name for her, and I would like it to go nicely with my other daughter Laila's name.

Some of the names that my husband vetoed were: Caroline, Veronica, Liberty, Margaret, Victoria.

Any other ideas for me?

Norah would work. As then you have a name meaning Night and another meaning Light.

I actually don't get the same vibe from Laila (modern, quite multicultural) that I do from your vetoed suggestions (much more traditional and formal). Not that that really matters I don't think but if you are looking for 'matching' then I don't think those names do.

I think Laila goes with:
Avery, April, Amber, Aubrey, Anais, Amaya, Aria, Alexis
Brooke, Bronte, Bree
Cleo, Carys, Cassia, Connie, Chloe
Danica, Darcey, Dana, Delphi, Dulcie
Everly, Effie, Elisa, Elina, Elana, Elora, Elowen, Erin, Eden
Farah, Freya
Grace/Gracie, Giselle, Georgia
Halle, Hana, Hebe, Hollie, Hattie
Ivy, Iris, Indie, India, Imogen, Isla
Josie, Jessica, Jasmine
Kitty, Katie, Keziah, Kendra, Kiki
Luana, Leona, Lorelai, Livia, Lottie, Lexi, Lacey
Mika, Molly, Maisie, Madeleine, Misty, Marnie, Marla
Nicole, Nyah, Nina, Nadia, Nova, Nyla
Olive, Orla, Olivia
Piper, Paige, Pippa, Poppy, Posy, Polly, Penny
Quinn
Ruby, Rosie, Romy, Remy, Raine
Sadie, Stella, Sabrina, Saskia, Saffron, Sorrel, Summer, Skye, Scarlett
Tiana, Thea, Tamara
Willow, Wren
Ximena
Zara, Zia, Zelda, Zeryn, Zoe

Nora, Clara, Ellie, Niahm, Ciara, Ziva, Naomi, Lucy.

They have the meaning of light or bright.

Laila means night.
