Laura* nice but overused and boring
Zuleika nice but I'm not sure it's useable
Medora Medoro is a name given to dogs, so I can't really shake off that
Aurora* pretty
Inez dittor
Leila* tritto
Adeline nice but I'm not crazy about -ine endings
Astarte very interesting name indeed
Zarina reminds me too much of the wife of a Czar
Myrrha see comment on Zuleika, also maybe too close to MyraI love George, Gordon is ok and Byron is, well, too Byronian.
