Of those, I like Emily Paige (actually, if I can mix-and-match, I like Emily Grace best). Ciara is weird to me, and I don't like Delaney at all (not a fan of surname names for girls). Maybe Sarah instead of Ciara or Elaine instead of Delaney? I think more traditional, feminine-sounding names match Abigail Rose better.
Ciara would be the gaelic spelling for Keira(which we are not opposed to).
Thanks for your thoughts!
I should have been more clear. I know Ciara is a real name, and it's actually very pretty (good for you for using the real pronunciation, too. Please don't misspell it for the sake of dumb people), it just struck me as a little weird with your DD's name and the other options you'd listed. Abigail is very Anglo-sounding to me, while Ciara is 100% Gaelic. They clash a bit in my mind.
I think Emily sounds best with Abigail. I like Paige as a middle name, but also like Grace as so many others said. Would Ciara be pronounced like Siara or Kiara? I don't like the name much either way but I think you'd get a lot of pronounciation questions.
I think all three names are really pretty however I think people would mispronounce Ciara all the time and say "Sierra". I appreciate the desire to be authentic in ethnicity, but I think she'd have to correct people all her life.
I'll go with the minority vote and say Delaney Grace is my favorite.
I come from a long line of Scotts, so even though I really appreciate the authenticity of Ciara, I agree with the pp and think that most people will say, "Sierra."
Emily's a pretty, classic name, but I've never been a fan for some reason.
Re: girl names- help please!
Emily Grace
?
EDIT: hmm. freudian slip? ?Emily Paige was my original thought!?
Ciara would be the gaelic spelling for Keira(which we are not opposed to).

I think Emily "goes" best with it. But I also like Ciara. Of course, that's my sister's name so I'm more than a little biased.

I agree that Clara would work well.
