Help vs. With vs. Girl Name

Hi all! We need help with a name for our baby girl. We have a list of names we would like to honor (or try to honor at least some of them), but otherwise we have no idea where to start. I’m Scottish so we like Isla, but that’s all we have so far! Thanks for your help :)

Names we’d like to honor somehow:

Michael -- my late father’s name
Ann -- my mother’s middle name
Elizabeth -- my middle name
Andrews -- my maiden name
Hazel -- our first daughter who passed away at birth

Thanks all!

Annabel - Scottish version of Amabel, honours Ann
Elspeth - Scottish version of Elizabeth
Isobel - Scottish and is a diminutive of Elizabeth
Aveline - means "the hazelnut tree" (I think this is so sweet!)
Annabeth - honours both Ann and Elizabeth!
Annika - honours Ann

So sorry for your loss by the way. Good luck!

Thank you! I really like Aveline, but how is it pronounced?

Cassandra (Ann, Andrews)?

It’s pronounced Ah-va-leen. Glad you like it!

Our last name starts with C, so Cassandra is probably out. Thanks for your suggestion, though!

Michael -> Mikayla/Mikhaila/Misha
Andrew -> Andrea/Andreya/Drea
Elizabeth -> Elise/Lilibeth/Bess/Bethany/Bethan/Lizette/Liesl
Ann + Elizabeth -> Anneliese/Annalise
Ann + Hazel -> Hannah
Hazel + Ann + Elizabeth -> Hanneli

I’ve heard Aveline being pronounced various ways. In French it’s Ah-vuh-leen or Ah-vuh-lin. In English as Ay-vuh-lin and Ah-vuh-lyne.

Thank you. I like Elise and Annelise, but likely only as middle names.

Isla Annelise
Isla Michelle
Isla Andrea
Isla Elisabeth
Isla Olivia (olive-green in color, as Hazel)

Adore the beauty and agelessness of Isla. BOL!

I agree with above poster about Isla Michelle - I think it’d be a beautiful way to honour your father.
