I really like Zoe. Its unusual and very beautiful, but doesn't sound esoteric. Zoe will be an adorable girl and an elegant and beautiful woman

I've always loved the name Luna, and was disappointed when it turned up in Harry Potter. I knew it would always have that association from that point on.
For the record, I love Zoe, and it would probably be on the top my girl name list if there was a family member with a first name which began with "Z" we could honor (we are naming by Jewish tradition).
My DD2 is Luna. I love it. It's beautiful yet unique and easy to spell.I got some mixed reactions when I posted on this board back when I was pregnant. In real life I've had one person ever bring up the Harry Potter reference. Peoples response in general has been overwhelmingly positive. She almost always gets complemented on her name.
Re: Clicky: Zoë, Luna, or Willow?

Voted for Willow, but like Zoe too.
Other suggestions: Ivy, Cleo, Kira, Zara, Mika, Flora, Neva, Aja, Tia, Anya, Esme, Lia, Penelope
I said Willow.
It sounds natural to me, peaceful, and beautiful all at the same time. As well I think Zoe is pretty common name which isn't my style.
