Girl P names

[sdjma.livejournal.com]

My father's name was Paul.

We would like to give the baby a middle name for my father.  If it is a boy, that's easy.  But what about a girl?  I'm not too into Paulette/Pauline/Paula... but, honestly, I haven't found any P names that I like for girls, except Priya, which I love, but since we aren't Indian, I would feel weird giving the baby that name.

Are there any P girl names that aren't awful?

I like classic names that are not super popular, although I'll admit that I do love some of the ones that are super popular right now (Isabella, Sophia, etc).  Generally I like traditional names that are... I don't know how to describe it, maybe pretty sounding?  Multi-syllables?  Names like Rebecca, Arianna, Joanna, Hannah, Molly...  I guess they all have soft sounds.  Anyway, any suggestions?

Thanks!
