A name for Diego’s sister

[keepgoingbackagain]

DS is called Diego. DH is from a Spanish speaking country and as we live in the UK it was important for us to have a name that was obviously Spanish but still worked well in the UK. We’re expecting a little girl now and are really stumped on names. We’d like something that meets the same criteria we had for DS’s name. Ideally names that are pronounced the same in English and Spanish. Any ideas?

Julieta is lovely in English but I'm less keen on the Spanish pronunciation.
Love Natalia.
Camila and Sofia are nice too.

Paloma? Bianca?

Frida.

With Julietta you may get different pronounciatiins in Spanish and English given “J”?

how about Clara?

Marta
Mar
Alba
Ana
Clara
Margot

Donna
Diana
Dana

Thanks for all the suggestions! Will look at DH’s family tree for suggestions too.

Either way - not nice.
