Can I have thoughts and impressions on these names please? Our daughter is being adopted from China, if that weighs in on your view at all.

I think you should give her a name that reminds her of home... Do you know what her original name is maybe you could make something out of that... instead of giving her something she's going to have a hard time pronouncing.

My vote goes for Maura.

I love Stella but Estella a bit less. That would be my second choice from your list.

Arden and Rowan are NMS.
