in reply to a message by Capucine
i like:
Esma - is it ESS mah or EZ ma?
Esra - pretty!
Ilayda - i'm guessing it's ill aye dah? it's really nice!
Lale (Lah-luh) - i like the sound of this
Meryem
Zeliha
Zehra - nice alternative to Zara or Zahara!
If you're living in an english speaking country, the spelling & pronunciation will get confused unfortunately. They are nice names though!

That's a good question about Esma. I always pronounced it ESS-mah, the possibility of the pronunciation EZ-ma never even occured to me. I'll do some research on that issue! Thanks for bringing it up!
I like Esma, too. I've been warming up to Esmée lately... but I'm a little afraid that it will become uber-popular due to the Twilight series. (Ha! I never read one of these books and even I know that Esme is one of the characters...)
Esra is one of my favourites, too. As well as Lale.
Thanks for your input.
