I really like the idea of having Lilith and Athena in the same sib set.
Nia seems kind of childish when paired with Kaleb, Joah and Lilith.
Sariah/Zariah I adore!!

Freya Cleo Magnolia or Freya Celeste Maple, they were the first two combos that came to mind.

I'd choose Freya or Inara. I hadn't come across Inara before, so I looked it up and she was a Hittite goddess of wild animals and daughter of a storm god: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inara_%28goddess%29 - I like it!
Also wondering if you'd like Naia - fits the pronunciation you want better and has a cool meaning.

I never thought about spelling Nia like this Naia. Thank you!!

I think a biblical or goddess name would fit in well with your current brood (you must be one very busy lady!), so that would be Freya, Athena and Jessica (the full version rather than Jessa). Of the three, I think Athena is the least suitable, because the furthest removed from the naming world of your present kids. Jessica and Kaleb would be gorgeous, but then you'd have two J names, and Lilith and Jessica are very dissimilar. I'd like a Kaleb, Lilith, Joah and Freya set. I think they sound and look good together, and Freya brings Nordic energy and freshness while still fitting in. Have you got any mns lined up? I think Freya Niamh Inara would be stunning - Inara is a bit too out-there as a fn, but it's a pity to waste it, and a single-syllable name would give a better rhythm in the middle position. Niamh was a sea-goddess, so she'd complete the set very well. Wouldn't Lilith Morgana June and Freya Niamh Inara be a magical pair of sisters?

I think Inara works best with your other kid's names, thought Freya is my personal favorite.

Zariah/Sariah - Not awful, but not really something I'm fond of. I'm not sure how well they fit with your kiddos' names, either.
Nia - Sweet, it's been on my list in the past and it's one I'd quite like to see on someone else's child. I think it fits with Kaleb alone, but not the other two, so I don't think I like it in the set.
Freya - Love Freya! I wish it wasn't so popular here. I love it with your kids' names, too. They all have a kind of mythic feel and I think Freya continues that perfectly.
Inara - I like it. It's probably my third favourite from the list to go with Kaleb, Lilith and Joah.
Jessa - Not a fan - it just doesn't do anything for me. It seems very 90s, too.
Athena - Second favourite! Very sweet and strong.I'm not too sure about middle names, but maybe Freya Guinevere Alice? Athena Beatrice Pearl? Something along those lines, anyway :)

Congratulations!Kaleb, Lilith, Joah, and Sariah/Zariah would be my pick. I feel it keeps up the Biblical (and Jewish folklore) theme you have going.I'm rather awful when it comes to combos so I'll spare you the trauma. :)
