I think Lark Camille sounds best but if you want more options how about using it as a mn and have her go by her middle name? The following all flow better if the names are reversed.
Annika Lark
Gwendolyn Lark
Evelyn Lark
Jasmine Lark
I think Jasmine Lark goes very well together but Evelyn Lark is my personal favorite.

I do like Lark, I think it sounds fun. Out of your ideas I probably lean most towards Lark Christine but the aforementioned k collision does bother me a bit. Personally, it brings to mind -na ending names with unstressed first syllable

---

Lark Leanna
Lark Joanna
Lark Susanna
Lark Tatiana

---

or the -ma ending
Lark Jemima (I like the sound of it even though the meanings clash)

It sounds flimsy and childish, too much like a fairy tale character.

Lark Adelaide
Lark Briony
Lark Cecily
Lark Diana
Lark Eliza
Lark Felicity
Lark Guinevere
Lark Hermione
Lark Iris
Lark Juliet
Lark Matilda
Lark Octavia
Lark Philomena
Lark Rosemary
Lark Sophia
Lark Theodosia
Lark Violet

Lark Camille sounds rough because of the colliding k sounds.
Lark Annika is too childish, I'd pair more mature sounding names with Lark.
Lark Carolyn has the same issue as Lark Camille.
Lark Evelyn doesn't work for me, but that might be because I pronounce Evelyn as EEV-lin. Lark E-ve-lin sounds find, but I can't get around this pronunciation.
Lark Christine has the same issue as Lark Camille and Lark Carolyn.
Lark Dorothea is very jarring, the names are too different stylistically IMO.
Lark Gwendolyn has a pleasant, whimsical feel to it.
Lark Jasmine sounds like a cheap brand of perfume.

I've always liked Lark and I'd consider using it as a middle name.
I like it as a first name too, just not as much as some others.

Lark Georgia
Lark Rebecca
Lark Camellia
Lark Seraphina

I love it. I would absolutely use it tbh. Harsh yet light and crisp.

---

I would avoid the middle names that also start with a k- sound.

---

Of your combos I like Lark Evelyn best.

Other ideas

Lark Susannah
Lark Milagros

Lark Alexandra
Lark Eliana
Lark Winifred
Lark Marilyn

I find Lark kind of harsh, but I like that it feels poetic and playful...and I think I like that it rhymes with Hark!, spark, dark...it seems complex yet straightfoward.

---

I dislike Wren and Larkin, by comparison.
But I like Larkspur and Meadowlark more than Lark.

---

I like the way Gwendolyn softens Lark, plus I just love Gwen, anyway.
Lark Jasmine is wordy, but if that's your thing, it's a pleasant image.

---

I don't like it with MNs starting with a hard C or a vowel. I feel like the names run together.

---

From my list, I'd put it with

---

Lark Gloria
Lark Georgette
Lark Regina
Lark Demetria
Lark Lorelei
Lark Loretta
Lark Lenore
Lark Zoraida - that's my favorite
Lark Benedicta
Lark Drusilla
Lark Nedelya
Lark Phoebe
Lark Rosalind
Lark Rosamund
Lark Siobhan
Lark Zoe
Lark Mildred
Lark Luminita
Lark Theresa
Lark Wilhelmina
Lark Sophronia
Lark Winifred
Lark Yolanda
Lark Zenobia
Lark Viviana

First thing I think of is the saying for a lark (just for fun). It’s quite harsh sounding for a feminine name, it’s a more tomboyish. I do think it’s a name that ages well.

---

I like the combo Lark Camille!

I really don't think it works with Camille, Carolyn, Christine and Gwendolyn. They run together, giving the impression of someone French: La Camille, etc. Plus, apart from being a pleasant little bird (and what girl wants to be considered a bird in this day and age?), a lark is a piece of jolly mischief. There's just too much going on!

I like Lark.

---

I don't think it sounds great with middles that start with a K, or a stressed vowel. They pick up the K in Lark too much (Lar-Christine, Lar-KEV-elyn)

---

I like Lark Jasmine, although it's a little too word-y...

---

It could take a middle name with more gravitas.
Lark Dorothea is cool.

Lark Victoria
Lark Millicent
