Wow! there are more choices than I figured.
I like the look of Eirena. How do I pronounce it? I like Shalom; its a religious word, I think. Is it respectful to use for a name?

Shalom, is a Hebrew word meaning "peace". Its greeting used by speakers of Hebrew. There’s a model named Shalom Harlow.
Yoy could also use one of its variant forms: Shalome, Shalva, Shalvah, Shelom, Shilom and Sholome

Eirena is pn eye-ree-na. I would steer away from Shalom as some people may take offense to it and your daughter has to live her life with the name...

Appreciate the suggestions. Any others?

I think Serenity is cute used as a name itself!

Pax - Latin for peace, also the name of the Roman peace goddess

Pace - a form of Pax. I believe this has two syllables with a hard C sound but you’d have to look it up.

Pacific, Pacifica - peaceful, or thereabouts

Paloma - dove
