I don't mind Arabella, Myles (prefer Miles), Amber (although this name now seems dated to me), Tilly, Faith, Esther (although I've always considered it a mouthful to pronounce), Clara, Gabriel, Billy, Enzo or Freddie.
Manaia, Zorawar and Rehmat are fun to see. I'm not a fan or Harley, Braxton, Marley or Skylar - some are too surname-y for my tastes and I think the other "mashup" style names will date quickly.

I like/love these names.
Female: Esther, Cleo, Iris, Arabella, Faith and Clara
Male: Elias, Gabriel, Freddie and Isaiah
Female: Esther, Cleo, Iris, Arabella, Faith and Clara
Male: Elias, Gabriel, Freddie and Isaiah
I like Tilly and Clara; Iris is OK. On the male list, I'd prefer Fred to infantile Freddie, and Bill to Billy.
I don't like Braxton, Freddie, Billy, Tilly. Amber and Harley are borderline.
Rehmat (being from rahmah) reminds me of Ruhamah because I was thinking if that was usable recently. Zorawar is unfamiliar to me, but I like it.
I'm not sure what to think of Manaia. I feel like I'd have to be a New Zealander to judge the nuance/symbol properly.
That leaves: Esther, Iris, Arabella, Marley, Faith, Skylar, Cleo, Clara, Elias, Malakai, Myles, Gabriel, Enzo, Atlas, Isaiah - nice names. I think I would pick...
Cleo Iris Rehmat or Elias Enzo Malakai
alternatives:
Myles Gabriel, Atlas Isaiah, Elias Malakai
Esther Arabella, Marley Faith, Clara Skylar, Iris Cleo
