From your list, I like:
Adaline (prefer the Adeline spelling)
Alivia (prefer Olivia)
Alora (Elora)
Angelina
Carolina
Dahlia
Elizabella (Elisabella)
Emmeline
Evelina
Gemma
Lacey
Viviana
And then there are a few that I like similar names, but not the actual names, like Gabrielle/Gabriella over Briella, Winter over Winterlyn, Cora over Koralynn or Koralie, Julia instead of Juria, Isaline/Ysaline over Isolina, and I really love the idea of Ava-Rose as a double name, but Avarose just looks too smooshed for me.
As they are, Olivia Lacey or Gemma Adeline, or Evelina Viviana would probably be my favorites.
Good luck!Ashley
twenty-something name lover dreaming of adoption.
Isabelle | Arianne | Olivia | Violet | Rachel | Liliana | Charlotte | Eleni | Hannah | Eva | Catherine | Tess | Emmeline
Caleb | Everett | Asher | Jack | Grayson | Avery | Bailey | Samuel | Charles | Boaz

Sorry but I would never name a child Abrial
1) it's a last name not a first name and
2) Jean-Marie Charles Abrial served under the Vichy Regime in WWII and was later arrested and sentenced for his collaboration with the Nazis. Of course other people share this name but he's who I and probably others associate it with. I added the info to the nameberry entry on Abrial.Josephine Athénaïs - Josephine Ivy - Myriam Athénaïs - Vivienne Josephine
Athena Beatrice - Beatrice Cecile - Eleanor Anne-Sophie -Myriam Beatrice - Meredith ElizabethAmbrose Aristide - Ulysses Aristide
Girls: Bérangère, Bérénice, Honorine, Mazarine Boys: Augustin, Emeric, Hugo, Lambert, Lucien, Maxence, Yves

A lot of these names are just too trendy for my taste, but some of them are pleasant sounding. There are a few gems here and ones that I actually love. I am going to be honest in my opinions...
Abrial - Since I love Bree names and I am a fan of Brielle, but find it incomplete, I have considered Abriel. I prefer the E in it.
Adaline - I cannot get on board with this name - it looks and sounds like add a line
Adicia - I'm not sure how to pronounce this...
Adria - Ever since I heard this on a reality show years ago, I have liked it. It's pretty and uncommon. I like uncommon names.
Alivia - dislike Olivia spelled with an A - it's weird
Alora - very pretty, but I like it spelled Allura
Angelina - ugh I dislike Angelina Jolie, so I can't get passed that. It is also really too frilly.
Angeline - better, but I still don't like it. Do you like Evangeline?
Anisa - prefer it spelled Annissa - this one's not too trendy, so that's good
Arayla - I don't like this one. Too hard to pronounce. Is it supposed to be like Aurelia? Aurelia is lovely. Arayla isn't.
Armani - like the suit? I don't think this makes a good name. Since men wear the suits, it also seems too boyish.
Atiyana - I don't like this. The spelling is strange. I'm not even sure how to pronounce it
Auburn - like the hair colour? This would be an okay mn, but I don't think it makes a good fn. Maybe Auden? I think it makes a better boy's names, but some people think it's unisex...
Auriella - prefer just one L It is really lovely, but really frilly
Avalee - too trendy
Avarose - also trendy
Avalynne - this one seems a bit more useable, but the spelling Aveline is nicer
Briarleigh - ick (sorry) Briar is better for a mn. Perhaps Briony/Bryony instead?
Brielle - I like this, but it seems incomplete and I don't care for Gabrielle
Brilynn - nooo - this is sooo trendy, it hurts my eyes
Cambria - I love, love, love Cambria!
Caridyn - sounds pretty, seems useable
Carolee - huh? Carol Lee? it sounds outdated, not modern
Carolina - I like Caroline, but not Carolina. Maybe cuz it's a place...
Caslynn - this is strange
Chaselyn - yuck Chase for a boy is nice though
Dahlia - gorgeous!
Darilynn - I don't like these names that end in lyn. They just don't work for me. Just Dara would be pretty enough. It doesn't need lyn added on to it.
Daylin - I don't like it at all
Daviana - this is okay, less trendy, almost vintage sounding
Diamond - I like this better than all the trendy ending in lyn and lee names, but it would probably be a nicer mn. You might like Emerald, since you also like Em names.
Dynelle - is this a trendier version of Danielle? Since you like lyn endings, I knew a girl once whose name was Lynelle.
Elizabella - wow, this is too much! Isabella is super popular, but it would be better to use a common name than this combo of Elizabeth and Isabella. Isabetta is more useable. Elisabetta too. Both lovely choices.
Emberlynn - Ember doesn't seem like a useable name...more of a name for a black cat or dog. Amberlynn would be prettier, but also a tad bit on the trendy side. Amberlynn is a lot tamer than the others though, and just sounds more normal...
Emily - very normal! I am surprised that you didn't spell it Emmalee. I love both Emma and Emily. They are uber popular though, so I would never use them.
Emine (e-MEE-neh) - nobody would ever pronounce this properly
Emmalina - I love this! It isn't super trendy and it sounds really pretty.
Emmeline - same thoughts as Adeline on this one. Emma line? Sounds strange
Emmerson - I am not one of those people that doesn't like son endings on girls. I think Emerson is cute. My niece is named Allison and that ends in son and has been used on girls for many, many years.
Evalee - shaking my head at this one...so many names ending in lyn or lee! This isn't the worst one, but the spelling turns me off of it
Evelina - Love! I like the spelling Evalena. I have seen it used on a child spelled this way, so that might be why I prefer it. Either spelling is nice. I like the pronunciation of ev-ah vs ee-vah. So, I don't care for Eva, but I like Evelyn.
Everett - for a girl? I really like Ever better for a girl than a boy, but I don't like all the boys names going to the girls. Elliot is another one that I think should stay on the boys side
Gemma - cute, spunky, very nice choice
Gia - seems incomplete to me, and while I am not a fan, it is also cute and spunky and not trendy, so I like it a lot better than some of the others on this list
Haven - super cute! this is the kind of trendy name I can live with.
Isolina - what?
Jacelynn - sooo 90's
Jairyn - sounds too boyish, weird spelling
Janica - not bad, I like Jana, and prefer Danica. Jenica wouldn't be too bad either.
Jara - kind of sci-fi sounding and it is a bit harsh
Jayliana - too trendy
Jaymsana - oh my goodness - this one is odd
Jayna - it is a lot prettier than the lyn and lee ending names you have on this list. I am actually surprised that this name isn't more popular
Juria - I love Junia! I don't like Juria. Is it even a real name? It reminds me of the word jury.
Kalidy (KAH-lih-de) - it's different...
Kaylan - trendy, but not too trendy...I prefer Kayla though and Cailin. I used to work with a girl named Cailin and this spelling is lovely and not too trendy.
Kayleigh-Ann - it's okay, but seems outdated
Kesa - I like Cassia (pronounced Casha). Kesa seems too made up.
Kestyny - like Destiny with a K? oh dear
Kielle - this isn't too bad
Kiranda - Miranda is sooo much prettier
Koralie - I like this, but I like Coralie better. Spelling names with K's makes a name look funny sometimes. This is one of those names.
Koralynn - I love, love, love Coraline. Coralynn could work too. Again, with a C, not a K.
Kyrielle - not bad. It reminds me of an 80's song. Kyrie
Lacey - out dated
Lavinia - wow! a vintage name! I like!
Legacy - this is different and it seems useable. I like this one.
Lindsay - most people would say out dated, but I still like Lindsay. It's cute, but ages well. I am glad you didn't butcher the spelling!
Lorelle - nice!
Lovelia - also vintagey Lovie would be an adorable nickname!
Lux - I dislike Lux. I do not see it's appeal
Mialyn - Mia Lynn? dislike
Mikaylyn - not liking these smooshed names. Michaela Lynn would make a lovely combo, but not smooshed together into one name. If you like Lynn, I suggest using it as a middle name, and maybe, sometimes calling the child by their full name, like a double-barrel name.
Nova - I knew a Nova once. It's very cool. My hubby's niece's name is Novalea, which I think is very pretty and not at all trendy. You might like it since it ends in Lee. It is the name of a street in my city, and the spelling Novalee was used in a novel once.
Novella - not at all cool. it's a short novel, not a name
Raelle - maybe with a Y? Rayelle
Rainer - this is a boy's name
Ravenna - okay, I suppose...but more suitable for a super hero type character than a person
Raylia - I like Rayelle better
Raylee - same as above
Rayne - I don't like Rain as a name...maybe put an A on the end? Rayna is much more useable than all these Ray names. Reina means queen.
Richelle - sounds outdated, Rochelle spelling looks nicer
Robyne - I don't like the E on the end, Robyn is a popular name when I was growing up. Two of the popular girls in my school were Robin and Robyn. I guess it could make a comeback since there is a Robin on How I Met Your Mother.
Rosaline - nice, vintagey
Ryah (rye-uh) - I knew a Rya too! She is Nova's sister! I love Rya!
Ryden - boyish and trendy
Skye - I have always loved Skye for a girl! Nice mn choice too
Skylar - I like just plain Skye. Do you like Scarlet?
Skyvy - what? This sounds like the name of an airline.
Tarren - I know two Taryn's. I prefer that spelling too. I like Y's in names and sometimes it looks nicer, but not when it looks like someone was trying to hard to be unique.
Tayla - this isn't so bad. I knew a Tayia. (tay-ah) I've always like that.
Tenley - sounds like the name of a product...oh...it reminds of those Tena pads. You might like Tinsley instead.
Viviana - lovely
Winterlyn - just Winter is different enough, don't you think? Winter is lovely. Winterlyn is trendy. Too trendy.
You might like Silver.
Here are some people I know who have names that might be your style:
Keely, Alexyn, Ocean, Shanae (also goes by Shay)
I hope this helps!
