Before the recent Oliver boom in the USA, I had it pegged as a winsome, slightly pitiful British urchin. Ollie is still British.Alfie
Archie
Neville
Nigel
Harry - I've met a few elderly Harrys in the US.
Tobias / Toby
Ernie
Tillie
Poppy
Elsie
Millie
Pippa
Ottilie - This would seem American on an old person but more British on a child.

From your list Emma, Millie, Poppy and Sophie are the most British, although Emma is pretty international. I would also add Harry, Oscar and Louis.
