Hello and need some help w girl names

Hello everyone. My name is Amy and my dh's Jerrod. And we are expecting our fourth girl in two and half weeks. Our dds' names are Kaitlin Riane, Annabella Elaine, and Madeline Rose. Let me explain a bit about how we chose our dds names. With Kaitlin Riane, when I was a little girl, I used to watch DeGrassi Junior High and there was a character named Caitlin and fell in love with that name. Annabella Elaine, we had Matilda Elaine until the day before I went into labor, saw the name Annabella and decided to name her that. But after her birth, I wished I never had that name for few months. Then when I got to see her true personalities, She's just a perfect Annabella. And lastly, Madeline Rose, we took few names with us to the hospital, Madeline was not on the list but Madelyn was. So, my husband asked, why not Madeline like the little cute character from France. I said yeah why not, i like the name. So, now with our fourth and last baby girl, we want to have a perfect name. I have been searching since we found out we were pregnant last April. STill no names. But here's on our name list that we either arent in love or crossed that out.

Romilly/Romy
Delaney
Sydney
Zoe/Zoey
Alexa/Alexia/Alexandra
Jenna
Samantha
Tierney
Olivia
Sorcha
Salome
Penelope
Emma
Carys
Peyton
Ava
Ruby
Freya
Phoebe
Neely
Sarah/Zarah
Teagan/Tegan
Rowan/Rowena
Piper
Jorja
Tessa
Georgia
Lorelei
Cassidy
Avery
Lauren

That's a lot of girl names that we are not in love with or crossed out from our list. There are some names from the list that I like but dh doesnt and same as he likes some names and I dont. We need to find a name that we both like. I like something different not so unique but still see the names somewhere else. Dh likes the names that he have heard of, he loves Emily, Kelly, Sarah, too plain or too common names. You can see, we do need help! Thank you so much for reading this far and in advance for your names suggestion!

Amy
due in 2 1/2 weeks!

I agree with tallgirlcolo! Those names seem to flow with your other girl names. Good luck! My favorite is Samantha.

hello!! well, you have a lot of "my" names on there-i have 2 girls-violet and isabelle-and my dh and i are trying to decide if we want another child-and i keep changing my mind on what name i like best for a girl-my top 3 are alexandra, cassidy and ava-lol. but-i also love sydney, avery, samantha, olivia, and alexa. all 8 of those names would sound great with your other childrens names...BUT-i know alexis(and all other alex girl names) are getting popular and so is ava. i know a couple of samanthas too, but theyre older-14 and 19. good luck to you whatever name you decide on...take care!

It is a long list but you've had a while to toss out names. I know that these were vetoed for whatever reason, but you might want to revisit some.

The ones I'd suggest are: Samantha, Olivia, Lauren and Georgia.
I think they fit with your girls names and are classics.

Samantha Renee
Olivia Leigh
Lauren Noelle
Georgia Carine/a

Some new ones to consider are:

Jessamine Marie/a - prn. like "in"- "e" is silent
Cassandra Jayne - I like the "y" b/c it softens the f/n
Amelia Celeste
Marina Evelyn

My first thoughts with Kaitlin, Annabella and Madeline were Eloise, Talulla or Clementine. ;)

Since you don't love any of the names on your list, I'll list a few that come to mind (if any):

Romilly/Romy/Rowan/Rowena -- Amelie, Rhonwen, Rhianwen, Rhiannon
Delaney -- Alanis, Alanna(h), Elaine, Elise, Helen(a), Daphne, Dorothy, Darla, Dara, Devri, Devin, Devanie (I had both on my list with my second, named Devanie)
Sydney -- Cecily, Cecilia
Zoe/Zoey/Penelope/Phoebe -- Chloe, Daphne (again), Calliope
Alexa/Alexia/Alexandra -- Alessandra (but all Alex- names are much more popular than most of your other choices, so you might want to avoid them), Sasha
Jenna/Emma -- Gemma, Emeline, Amelia, Jemima
Samantha -- Samara, Charlotte, Scarlett
Tierney/Teagan/Tegan -- Tatum or Talulla
Olivia -- Orla, Orinthia
Sorcha/Sarah/Zarah -- Sabia, Saoirse, Saraid, Shea, Siobhan, Sibeal, Sinead, Siofra, Savarra, Sairla, Zaira
Salome -- Penelope, Paloma, Naomi, Calliope
Carys -- Grainne/Grania, Niamh, Cliona, Kerenza/Kerensa
Peyton -- Paisley, Ainslie
Ava/Avery -- Avalon, Avonlea, Aveline, Aoife
Ruby -- Pearl, Scarlett
Freya -- Isla, Rhian, Finola, Fiona, Fiora, Flora
Neely -- Neila, Neilina, Nessa/Neasa, Eleanor/Nell, Nora(h)
Piper -- Harper
Jorja/Georgia -- Georgette, Georgina, Deorsa, Seoirse
Tessa -- Therese, Teresa, Teressa, Tessara
Lorelei/Lauren -- Lorna, Lenore, Leanora, Laura, Laurice, Lori
Cassidy -- Cassandra

Sorry for repeats! HTH ;)

ETA: I was in a hurry when I posted this, but wanted to mention that I combined some of the names I had similar suggestions for (like Ava/Avery), although there are still one or two names repeated.

Kaitlin, Annabella and Madeline are all pretty feminine and classic (yet currently popular) names, so I'd try to stick to that pattern.
