10 weeks left and no name progress!

Hi Berries,
You all always have such great ideas, I thought I would check to see if you have any fabulous suggestions for us! We are expecting our second daughter and are completely stuck on a name. First daughter is Grace Elizabeth Mae and we would like something with a classic, feminine feel for baby #2. Here are some of the names we have considered:

My list:
Charlotte (nn Lottie) - I love this but worry it is too popular
Cora - I love but my hubby HATES this name
Emmeline
Adeline or Adelaide
Estelle

My hubby's list
Hadley
Hattie
Evelyn - I like this but again worry about popularity

What are we missing? I would love a name we are both thrilled with but so far no such luck. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

I think Grace and Charlotte sound beautiful together.

Other suggestions:
Julia
Cynthia
Natalie
Helena
Eleanor
Nora
Samantha
Rebecca
Beatrice
Clara

Grace and Adeline would be one of the prettiest sibsets I've ever heard!!
All your other names are lovely though, so you can't go wrong Charlotte and Evelyn are my other 2 favourites with Grace.

I agree that Adeline would be great - I also quite like Estelle.

I think Grace and Adeline are beautiful together. You could also go with Aveline, to kind of smush Adeline and hubby's choice of Evelyn. Best of luck!

Charlotte-Well, this is my daughter's name & I adore it. I hate the nn Lottie. My daughter goes by Char, Charlie & Charlotte.
Cora-I like it but I like Coralie better.
Emmeline-Love!
Adeline-I love this more than Adelaide but both are great & feminine.
Estelle-MUCH prefer Stella.

Hadley-I've always liked this!
Hattie-Ehhh no thank you.
Evelyn-Too old fashioned IMO.

Some suggestions:
Beatrice
Lucy
Lucille
Leah
Penelope
Rosalie
Amelia
Emelia

Do you have middle names picked out?

Just playing around with some combinations, maybe something will resonate with you.

Lena Audrey Emmeline
Olive Ramona Estelle
Hattie Josephine Leah
Cora Louise Pearl
Adeline Lucille Frances
Eleanor Hattie Jean
Nina Marguerite
Vera Evelyn Ruby
Eva Marian Charlotte
Anna Vivienne Lily
Ivy Amelia Tess
Sadie Johanna Patience
Lucy Matilda Hazel

Grace Elizabeth Mae and Adeline Charlotte Pearl? Just a thought.

If you're still searching for first names, Clara springs to mind. So do Josephine, Eliza, Audrey, Sophie/Sophia, Imogen, Diana, Flora and Evangeline. But I think Adeline is perfect, as are most of the other names on your list.

I love Emmeline and Evelyn. Yes I think they're popular, but not overly popular in my opinion. Names like Aiden or Ava are overly popular.
How about
Marissa
Gwendolyn
Genevieve
Cassandra
Louise
Hannah
Rebecca
Addison
Naomi
Brenna
Eleanor

Would you and your husband consider Coral instead of Cora? You could use the popular names as a middle name.

Coral Evelyn
Emmeline Charlotte
Hadley Estelle
