Help me find the 'perfect' girl's name?

[starcrossed.livejournal.com]

I'm having trouble finding a girl's name I like.

I'm 95% sure on Oliver Henry for a boy (though other possible contenders could be Charlie, Max, Toby, Frankie or Jack.)

I'm quite a fan of 'nickname' type names like Evie, Molly, Holly, Maggie and I also like Gabriella and Phoebe but none of these seem quite 'perfect' (when I put Oliver and Henry together I thought 'That's the one!' but haven't had a similar moment for a girl's name yet.) Selena is also a very traditional family name (used for 120 or so years) I would consider.

Any thoughts?

ETA: Unless it really clashes with a first name I love, I'll be using Gwendoline (my Nan's name) as a middle name. Rose is another family name that could be an alternative middle name.

Our daughter is Maisey - which is a nickname for Margaret (she's not Margaret though).

Do you have a girl middle name yet?

I think Maisey is lovely but I have two friends who have daughters named Maisie/Maisy already.

I think it will be Gwendoline (my Nan's name) unless I fall in love with a first name and it really doesn't go. Otherwise Rose is a common middle name in our family which goes with most things.

I like your working list quite a bit! Gabriella and Molly were both my short list for my 8 month old daughter...who we ended up naming Lucy. Others on our list were Bianca, Annie, and Lexi (probably with the full name Alexandria).
