Ezekiel is too close to Ezra for my taste. With Levi I just feel like A) it sounds very country which is fine but just not my taste so I don't care for it and he would deal with a lot of jeans references and jokes. Also, if it were a nn for something it might be better but as a stand alone name I feel like it might sound odd if he were to become a business man or something (partially I think because to me it either sounds like a little kid or a cowboy). I think Merit/Merritt is unique and pretty. Personally I prefer Merritt I think though Merit is easier phonetically.
Of your choices, Levi. If you'd sub Marek for Merit, I'd say Marek.

You don't need to imbue a harmless comment with whatever baggage you have about your daughters name.
