I found a few more names that are different. What do you think? Some are old family names. Let me know.
Adelaide nn Addie
Isidore
Adena
Sumner (not sure if this is a boy or girl name)
Shia
Kipton (a boy in my son's class - nn Kip)
I would love your opinions on these.

My neighbor's 5 year old DD is Adelaide - nn Addie. She is a cutie and it's a sweet name.
I also like Adena from your list. Kipton isn't too bad either, except that it rhymes with Lipton.
I love Adelaide and Isidore, though I prefer Isadora for a girl. I like Sumner and Kipton, but only if it's a name in your family. If not, then they fall into that same category with Kennedy and McKenzie: random last names that have no business being first names. I like either of them for a boy, but I'm not sure of them on a girl.
I really dislike Shia and Adena.
Adelaide nn Addie -- love, love, love it. Addie is SO sweet and pretty, and I so prefer it as nn for the sweet, feminine, classic Adelaide than the trendy Addison. Absolutely love this one.
Isidore -- I really like this, but MUCH prefer the Isadore spelling (and I really like Isadora as well). Isidore just doesn't look quite right to me.
Adena -- hmm, this is just okay to me. It's not bad, just not a favorite. I really like the nn possibility of Dena.
Sumner (not sure if this is a boy or girl name) -- Love this on
Adelaide nn Addie - I like this; old fashioned sounding and ADdie is cute
Isidore - don't like
Adena - ok. Is it pronounced like Idina Menzel? - the originial wicked witch in the broadway show Wicked.
Sumner (not sure if this is a boy or girl name) - can't decide on this one
Shia - no
Kipton (a boy in my son's class - nn Kip) - I think Kip is such a cute nn for a little boy, but I dont think I like Kipton.
You uncover some great names to ponder!!
Adelaide nn Addie - Excellent name! So cute, yet can grow with the child
Isidore - don't like this, but like Isadora for a girl
Adena - this is cute, but I prefer Adelaide
Sumner (not sure if this is a boy or girl name) - Reminds me of Fort Sumter in South Carolina
Shia - nms
Kipton - Really don't like this name...the nn Kip reminds me of some little nerdy boy in school who would get beat up
Adelaide nn Addie- I LOVE this.... one of my all-time favourites. It is so beautiful and classy
Isidore- Not sure about this, however I like Isadore. Are they pronounced the same?
Adena- Very pretty, like this a lot
Sumner (not sure if this is a boy or girl name)- like this on a girl
Shia- Seems rather trendy to me, although its not horrible. I prefer Shea
Kipton (a boy in my son's class - nn Kip)- Kip is an adorable nn, I like it
I love Adelaide!
The spelling on Isidore looks off to me. I'm thinking Isadore...? Overall I don't like this name very much. It sounds clunky and when I read it phonetically "Is a Door" is all I can think of.
Adena - not my style.
Sumner - is okay...
Shia - is this male or female?
Kipton - Kip is a really cute nn but I don't like Kipton.
I love Isidore! Another that is somewhat similar to Isidore in sound is Isolde or Isolda.
Sumner is a great name! Traditionally it's used for boys, but I like it for both. However, if you name a girl Sumner, she will probably be correcting people calling her Summer for years to come.
I also love Kipton (very preppy - so, not sure if you want to go that way).
Good luck!
