Help! Need girl names but we’re very picky. We like sophisticated / classy names that aren’t popular, but aren’t necessarily “unique” either. Something that people have heard of but it’s not part of the top 100 names. Any suggestions? Thanks everyone!

Hello!
I'm halfway through my pregnancy and I really want to pick a name. For my son, it was SO easy. But I'm just finding that girl's names are so much harder?? There are a few names I love that I can't use and a few that I like but I'm unsure if any are "the one". Would love suggestions!
Love but can't use:
Elizabeth (close friend's name)
Juliette (too similar to baby's future auntie)
Charlotte (friend with a daughter named this)
Jane (another friend with a daughter named this)
Adaline (my sister mentioned in passing wanting to use this name for any future children she has, so I took it off my list :()
Names I like:
Aurora (too princessy?)
Eliza (will people assume her full name is Elizabeth? Bc that could be annoying for her)
Stella
Clara (my husband would prefer people pronounce it Cl-ah-ra, but where we are in the US, that isn't the most likely pronounciation)
Evelina (although I think people may struggle with how to pronounce this L-EYE-NA vs L-EE-NA)
Anyway...you get the idea. I'm drawn to classic/elegant/beautiful sounding names. If it helps at all, her brother is named Henry.
Edit: Wow! So blown away by all of the wonderful suggestions! I ended up having a family emergency (not related to this pregnancy) so that's why I was MIA. Thank you everyone!
A lot of elegant names appeared to be very delicate - cecelia, vivienne, colette, and anything along the line. The only ones i would consider elegant and strong are Alexandra and maybe Scarlett.
Any more names like that?
