Should we give vs. new name or vs. keep old one?

I have 4 kids named Aidan Parker (14), Erica Francesca (11), James Cooper (We call him by his middle name because James is ridiculously overused, he’s 9) and Cora Kennedy (7). I recently married a man named Mark, and he has 2 kids himself. There’s Alexis Mae (16) and Max Cole (10). We are adopting a girl who is 12, and her given name was Tammy Grace. Do you think we should keep it or change it? It’s not our favorite name, but since she is 12, we feel it might be a big change. What do you think? If you say to change it, would you leave an opinion on names below? Thanks :) -Libby

Dear Genie, I need you to help me find a Greek name for a girl. I've already used Theodore and Sebastian for her siblings. But every other Greek girl's name I see is either too pretentious, hard to pronounce, or just too popular now. The only name I can picture using is Caroline, but it's not Greek!
Baby Name Genie:
The Greeks would name her Charissa Zoe. Then, they would stuff her in a wooden horse and give her to the Trojans. So, my advice would be to borrow the name but not the rest of their tactics.
