Can't Decide

Hi,
I'm new to your message board and I would really love some advice on a name for baby girl number two. Daughter #1 is named Caylie Grace and I've had it pick out since I was in high school before it was so popular and I can't come up with a name for #2 that I love as much and isn't as popular.
Here are my top 3 ideas:
Aubrey Faith
McKinley Faith
Briana Lea (Dad's Fav.)
Any other suggestions are welcome also
Thanks

Aubrey Faith- Aubrey is nice. It is considered trendy by many (and unisex), which usually I don't like, but maybe because of its similarity to Audrey, I actually like it. I don't think the trendiness would bother you though, since you already have a Caylie. I do think that Faith is too cutesy since Caylie's mn is Grace. Do you have any family names that could be used? Or anything of significance to you?
McKinley Faith- I really, really dislike this name. The Mc- names are overly done and on thier way quickly to outdated. I would avoid it, and any other Mc- name UNLESS that is a name in your family tree. Even then I would use it as a mn.
Briana Lea (Dad's Fav.)- Are you pronouncing Lea like Leah or like Lee? I LOVE Leah, would that work as a fn? I do find the Lea spelling a bit confusing though. Briana is okay. With this spelling (one "n") it would be pronounced bree-AWN-uh. Is that what you want? If you want bree-ANN-uh, spell it Brianna with two n's. I personally prefer Brianna. It is cute, and I like the nn Annie and Bree. I would use a different mn though. If you are pronouncing Lea like Leah, then the flow isn't great with both names ending in an "uh" sound, and if you are pronouncing it like Lee, it is a tad boring.
Some ideas:
Aurora nn Rory
Lorelei nn Rory
Ainsley

Simone
Tamsin

HTH, Aubrey and Brianna are both nice.

Skylar
Alyssa
Chloe
Natalie
Taylor
Rachel
Brooke

Thats all I can think of for now. I have quite a few friends with daughters named Kaylie, Kayleigh, Caylie, etc, so I just listed their other daughters names. They may sound good together just because I am used to them, so I hope you find some you like.
I think from your list - I like Caylie & Aubrey, followed by Brianna.
Other names than might work:
Kiley Elizabeth
Carlyn Rose
Teagan Mattea
Ainsley Paige
Ellerie Joy
Audrey Danielle
Meriwyn Chase
Chandler Lily
Brynn Alexandra
Skye Sophia
Phoebe Michelle
Mari Amelia

Aubrey Faith - I like Audrey Faith much better. Or if you want something less common, how about Audra Faith. Audra Faith is lovely.
McKinley Faith - Makes me think Mt. McKinley and I would imagine that would make for good teasing material for a girl.
Briana Lea (Dad's Fav.)- Okay. I prefer Brenna.
Would you consider Faith for the first name? It's gorgeous! Otherwise, I love Audrey Faith or Audra Faith.
