Alta was 153rd in popularity in the 1890s, it's a really underused vintage name. I think it'd appeal to people who like the names Elsie, Alma, Rosa, etc.

Would be an unfortunate name if she was unusually tall, but it is pretty!

Awh, this one is undiscovered gem! It could make a comeback, now that the short and sweet vintage names are trendy. ^^
