Natalie (Nathalie looks like it should be pronounced differently)
Vivienne (Reminds me of Vivienne Westwood, looks more sophisticated)
Aaliyah (I love the singer)
Briana (More simplistic in a good way)
Ines (Inez looks childish)
Everly (Others look childish)
Michaela (Others look childish, Mikaela is my fav spelling)
Emmeline (Reminds me of Emmeline Pankhurst)
Isadora (Flows nicer)
Lynn (Lyn looks like it should be pronounced "Line")

Natalie for the reason Anneza gave (everyone I know pronounces "th" in Anthony)
Vivian (actually I like Vivien most) - the others imply stress on last syllable, which I like a lot less
Aaliyah - the others sort of 'dumb it down' too much. Also the double A and the 'yah' kinda shames people out of a tendency to say 'ull-E-uh' instead of 'all-E-ah'
Briana ... this is really close. I would give up a visually appealing N to get a better chance of it being prn Breonna vs. Bree-Ann-a
Inez pronounced as Inés because Ines looks like it rhymes wines, and a Z-as-S-sound keeps it Spanishy, in my mind. Rather Inés than Inez-pronounced-"inNEZZ" though
Everlee because Everly looks like a twee language gimmick (meaning: "in an 'ever' manner" ... it fails to make me think 'surname name'). So the -lee looks breezier, namier. Everleigh seems overwrought
Michaela because it makes sense for a name based on Michael, not Kayla. If we are going to spell Michael as Mikayl, then Mikayla's alright. If we mean to name her a completely invented name based on Kayla / Mackenzie, that happens to sound vaguely like Michaela, then Mackayla or Makayla would work fine. But I don't like Mckayla. It's weird. Like Mckristin or Mckathryn
Emmeline because the other seems like it's made up or a smush of Emma and something.
Isidora because it's 'gift of Isis,' and because Isadora is 'sad' and seems like a smush of Isabella + the sound of -dora-. Also evokes the ballerina, which seems princessy / imagey to me, floofy, totally disappointing compared to Isidora which is dramatic, vivid, natty
