Deciding..

I am 27 weeks pregnant, and expecting a girl. I've been putting off picking out a name, but I figure I better get to thinking up something, else she will be nameless! So far, I've had alot of trouble with picking out names. I didn't realize just how picky I was! This seems to be the short list I've come up with, and I've taken to try and mix them up to see what I like. I am open to any suggestions about these names, or other names you would place with them. I get tired of searching through endless baby name sites, and would rather just have flat out opinions on it. :)

Madalyn
Malise
Reagan
Ava
Avie
Jane
Scarlett
Adaire
Laila

So far, I really like the name Madalyn, because I can call her Maddy for short. I like Ava, but it seemed a bit too much for a first name, and have been considering it as a middle name. I threw Scarlett in there becuase I am a huge gone with the wind fan, and I don't know of any Scarletts where I live. Laila was tossed in there because of the Eric Clapton song. Lol. Any help on coming up with something unique would be much appreciated!

Ava's shot up pretty rapidly, so you'd probably see it mainly on babies and toddlers.
