I need some suggestions.

I always have two boy and two girl name sets in my head. Recently, I've decided I don't like the flow of one of them. It was Beatrix Adelaide Merida. I decided to make out Merida, because that's the name that was bugging me, and actually used it as a name for my new computer because I love the name, just not so much with Beatrix and Adelaide.
It's been two weeks now, and I'm having a horrible time coming up with a name to replace Merida. I've flipped through my book and looked up things online, but nothing has jumped out at me. I was hoping someone here had some suggestions.
My other names are Vivica Margaret Verity, Caius Oakley Wilder, and Atticus Finnley Reason, just for reference.

I've also finally come up with an answer to that annoying "if you had to change your name what would you change it to" question. I can't quite decide on the order of the middle names though. Anna Violet Katherine Winter or Anna Katherine Violet Winter? I know this is not a practical question, but it's one I get asked a lot, so I'd like to have a solid answer. Which one would you say flows better?

Anna Violet Katherine Winter for sure. Names that could also be adjectives should be kept away from names that coul also be nouns.

Anna violet Katherine winter, because I read violet winter as violent winter.

I like the first one better because if you had to shorten it, Anna Violet sounds better than Anna Katherine.

Anna Katherine Violet Winter sounds better, really. I'm not exactly sure how to explain it, but Anna and Violet together like that seems harsh. Placing Katherine in the middle of them seems to break it up and help it flow better. I hope it makes sense. lol I like Atticus Finnley Reason and Caius Oakley Wilder sounds awesome too.
