I like Adriana a lot. I don't know that I would try to settle on a nn ahead of time; there's not very many that seem to come naturally, unless you want to use Addie or Ana. Your suggestions could work but seem a bit of a stretch.
I think it's a bad thing to worry so much about honoring so many family members that you hesitate to name after just one. I mean, what are you supposed to do, give her a long string of grandmothers and aunts' names and hope you didn't leave anybody out? Keep having daughters till you've covered everybody?
