Galilea and Nayeli are on my list of favorites, so I obviously <3 them.
I actually like Xiomara quite a bit.
I also like Mariela a lot too.

Wdyt of:
Araceli (are-uh-chel-ee or are-uh-seh-lee) - I knew a little girl named this, and she pronounced it as the latter. She was nicknamed Selly.
Keely - this reminds me of Phil of the Future on Disney. Keely is the name of his best friend/girlfriend in the series.
Kaia - I like this.
Galilea - I like the sound of this.
Iyana - I dont like many I names. Altho this has a nice sound to it as well.
Xiomara (zi-o-mah-rah) -. X names are completely not my style (at least for girls).
Imani (ee-mah-ee) - I like the meaning of this
Nayeli (nay el ee) - this to me should be a word given the meaning.
Aiyana - I'm not sure what to think of this. I feel like this would get misspelled often.
Areli (ar-ee-ah-lie) - this seems like it should be spelled differently (maybe Ariali) because of the pronouciation having more syllables.
Leiliani - I prefer Leilani over this. Leilani is Hawaiian meaning "heavenly flowers"
Saniyah -Saniyya is Arabic and the feminine form of Sani, which means brilliant and splendid. I would say Saniyah is a variant of Saniyya.
Sariah - Sariah is Mormon meaning "Yahweh is ruler"
Amara - Amara is Igbo meaning grace.
Mariela - this is a variant spelling of Mariella which is Italian and a form of Maria.

I've met a girl named Keely, I think its kinda cute
Kaia is pretty! I prefer it with a C, as Caia, but its lovely either way <3 I think theres an American Girl doll with the name Kaya? I can't remember haha
Iyana is lovely, though not my style
Xiomara is very interesting... in sound and in meaning!
Imani is pretty, though also not my style.
Nayeli sounds nice, and I adore the meaning behind it! I think it'd make a fabulous name because its pretty easy to say and the pronunciation is fairly clear in the spelling. Yet it has such interesting origins and a beautiful meaning <3
Aiyana is lovely, I like <3
Areli is pretty!! I really like it <3 What syllable is stressed in it though? ah-ree-AH-lie, or ah-REE-ah-lie?
Leiliani is nice, I've heard it before. Hawaiian for some sort of flower I think? Don't remember where I first heard it but its nice
I like Saniyah, though I wouldn't use it <3
So basically like Sarah except with an I? Sariah is nice... makes Sarah less plain <3
Amara has a gorgeous meaning!! I've heard the name a lot before, mainly around the internet. I think it'd make such a lovely name though!
I went to high school with a Mariela. I didn't know her very well, she was a popular girl though. And I only went to that school for a year so.. haha. Barely know her but she was pretty, so I guess its a positive association to me.
Nice list!! I love seeing new names <3

I think the stress on Areli is ah-REE-ah-liei could be wrong. I'll have to go back and look it up again. I wonder if this is where Ariel may have been derived from?
And Sarah was derived from Sariah(Saria). Saria was Abram's(Abraham) wife and the Lord blessed and renamed them, and called her Sarah. Sariah has a different pronunciation,but its similar in spelling.
I want to sit down soon and work on combos for these! I've just been too tired and too busy
