My Blog
I love Carys, I prefer Carina spelled Karina, and Carrigan is one I hadn't heard before but it's not bad- unique but doesn't sound like you're trying too hard.
Love Elisabeth (especially with the S); Emmaline is ok but seems kind of trendy.
I like Carys (Welsh for love) or Charis (Greek for grace), but not Caris (which looks misspelled or like you left off a "-sa" to me).
Carina is pretty. I also like Corinna a lot.
Carrigan seems sort of soap-opera-ish to me. It also reminds me too much of Nancy Kerrigan. Probably won't be something your child's peers ever know about, but it sort of makes me cringe and grab my knee in phantom pain. I like Cara, though, and I think it's perfectly fine as a stand-alone, formal name. It doesn't need to be retro-fitted with a long version.
Re: Deciding between Three "C" names
My faves are Elisabeth and Cara (but not Carrigan).
The rest are NMS, but not really bad names.
I love Elisabeth, nn Elisa (this was on our list at one point but I took it off for some reason....hhmm)
I also love Carina. Karina (the Scandinavian spelling) is on our list.
The others are nms.

Carys Elizabeth is one of our top picks for a girl! I just think Carys is a beautiful name, and I like the meaning as well.
