Re: Estella, Daisy or Kaia?

Estella I like. It's my favourite of the names you listed. It reminds me of the character from Great Expectations which isn't great but she had some more redeeming features towards the end IIRC. It's underused and more serious than the currently trendy Stella. I really really like Estella Rosaline.
Daisy is cute, but a bit nicknamey. I do love Daisy Emmeline and Daisy Elsa Mae though.
Kaia I always want to like, and feel like I should since it fits in with Maia, which I quite like. But my problem with it is that it has the word 'kai' in it, which is Maori for 'food' or 'eat'. It's quite commonly understood and used by non-Maori in New Zealand as well, so I find it a bit odd to see in a name. This wouldn't be an issue outside of NZ though.
