I like:
Ingrid Violet
Isabel Mary
Isabella Cecily - I like both names and they complement each other but they don't flow that well togther.
Isabelle Mary Celia - nice although I think Isabelle Mary Cecelia flows slightly better
Jacquetta Elizabeth Joy - I like the look of Jacquetta but not the sound
Jessica Lily
Josephine Alexandra

I'm thrilled to see Jacquetta - it's a guilty pleasure of mine (Jacquetta of Luxembourg) but I wonder if she'll get "jacket potato" teasing - I think the name of the English scholar Jacquetta Hawkes was pronounced ja-quet-uh (i.e. the q wasn't silent as in Jacqueline), so if the q is sounded this might avoid that jacketty feel.
I've also seen a suggestion online that the correct pronunciation is ja-quee-tuh (I don't like that at all) - wish I knew for sure!Anyone here know?Jacquetta Elizabeth Joy - lovely but prefer it with just the first two names.

It's so nice to see there are people in the world that still have class and taste. I cringe when I read birth announcements in my local paper. All these are quite nice. I especially love Imogen Juliet Rose.
