Help us with girl names!

in Baby Names
DD is Julia. Our last name is very Italian (rhymes with Spaghetti). MN is to be decided... although we're leaning towards Geny (the G sounds like the G in "beige" but otherwise it sounds like Jenny--it's DH's godmother's name) if it goes well with the name we choose. Please tell me what you like!

Re: Help us with girl names!
I really like the name Eliana and if DH didn't dislike it, it'd be on our list for a girl. However, I'm not sure if I'd pair it w/ Genny...maybe maybe another variation of...like Eliana Genevieve (or maybe that's too French?)...I don't know, something along those lines....
HTH!
ETA: Also, if your last name sounds like Spaghetti, I wouldn't go with Genny for first or middle name...Genny Spaghetti...sounds kinda sing-songy.
Eliza or Clara both sound very pretty with Julia, IMO.
I think Geny is pretty, but I like pp suggestion of Genevieve (still an homage to the godmother, even though it isn't the exact name). It seems to flow better as a mn. But if Geny is your choice I still think it is lovely.
Uhm, you guys aren't making this easy!
I think we're leaning toward Eliana, with Mila in second. So not too far off from the votes! As much as I love Gianna, it sounds too matchy with Julia... just because if we had a 3rd child I'd feel like I needed a name with similar sounds (the "J" and "A" sounds).
