I'd go with Calanthe, from your choices I like Calanthea better.

Of your two, Calanthea. Personally, I'd use Callista or even Caroline.

Of those two, Calanthea. Calandra, Callista, Calliope, etc. Are also quite nice.

Calanthea. Caledonia sounds more like country or territory. I would use Calista if it were me.

Probably Calanthea, but I don't like either one. Caledonia doesn't sound like a name at all and Calanthea sounds like a kitchen appliance. I'd prefer Calista or Calla.

Out of those two options, Caledonia. But I'd pick Caroline otherwise.

Oooh...I had never though of Caroline nn Callie. I have always loved Callie but none of the typical full names had ever really inspired me and I have always loved Caroline but have fancied none of the potential nicknames...I am really loving Caroline nn Callie! Thanks!

Calanthea, Caledonia looks weird to me. Calista and Calanthe are also an option.

Calanthea - but Callista is better!

I'd use Calliope or Calypso actually, but from your options I'd use Caledonia.

Calista! That's what I'd use at least. It means 'most beautiful'.
