How "Out-there" vs. can middle vs. names be?

Hi! We're expecting a little girl and are stressing over her name. Our sons are called Ezra Lysander and Leo Aurelius (last name is Hall). We tend to like a more "normal" first name and an "out-there" middle name because of how boring our last name is. Our problem is the middle names I've fell in love with for our daughter: Rosalune and Meadowlark. Yes, I am aware they are very unique (as in, I've never heard of them before) and they even sound made up (…because they are), and maybe it's something about pregnancy, but I just love them. I find them so beautiful and really magical. Do you think these names are too much? Too crazy? Do I need to tone it down or is it ok since they're middles? Her first name would have to be pretty normal and probably short. Our list includes: Clara, Molly, Ruby, Nora, and Gemma. If we need a different middle name, it would be something more like Artemis, Guinevere, Olympia, etc. Please help us out!

Help! I love the name Guinevere, but I can't think of a really good brother and sister name for her. Since Guinevere is so empowering, I want the next names to be powerful as well. Thanks, Genie!
Baby Name Genie:
You seek the Holy Grail of names. Let me help you in your quest. The brother of fair Guinevere will fight on foot with swords aplenty, but on his horse he'll surely lance a lot. Name him Edward for a regal name. A sister could be dubbed Katherine if greatness is what you desire.
