Looking for slightly unusual but not too outlandish girl's name

Looking for a girl's name for my 4th (due soon). Want something recognisable and easy to pronounce but not as popular as Chloe, Jessica etc.

Any ideas???

Ishbel.

Love this, and easy to spell (although I may have spelt it wrong)

Surprised by Scottish names being seen as unusual - but I suppose they are elsewhere.

Eilidh is the Gaelic version of Helen, and pronounced "A"-lee (like the dance - a ceilidh)

Ishbel is very much an old Scottish busybody type name where I'm from. "Ishbel down at the Post Office says..."

What about Erin? not too common, easy to say, cannot be shorted, and not 'in'.
