HelpName similar to Imogen?
I'm writing a story and want to name a character Imogen, but that name also belongs to someone I know and isn't the type of person I'd like to name this character after. I've been looking for some replacement names that have a similar-enough vibe to what I want, and this is the list I've come up with:
Indigo
Idalia
Celine
Cosette
Idella
Alison
Amethyst
Eloise
Emilia
Eulalia
Ophelia
Any ideas on which one fits best? Or do you have other names that have a similar feel? There's a couple names that could fit, like Isabelle, that I chose against including on the list for the same reason - I know someone with the name and don't want to name a character after them.

I like Eloise, Ophelia, and Emilia! I would avoid other names that start with "I" to match.
I think Idalia, Celine, Emilia, Alison, and Amethyst would be gorgeous names with Imogen!
I'd suggest:
Gladys
Darla
Vanessa
Hester
Cecily
Janine
Cornelia
Frances
Gwenora
Delsie
Nellie
Millie
Adelaide
Flora
Abigail
Lydia
Cora
Cordelia
Susanna / Susannah
Holly
Sophie
Marybeth
Francesca
Belinda
Arabella

Alice, rather than Alison. Eloise is getting popular, it seems - would that matter? -bel names like Annabel or Rosabel, even Christabel, could work. Rosamond?

Favourites from mentioned:
Idalia>Ophelia>Idella>Eloise>Celine>Eulalia
I think you are going for delicate, pure vibes so...
Agnes, Elodia, Elcida, Isolde/Isolda,
Oriana/Orianna, Ossana/Osanna, Calanthe,
Dulcinea, Leonore, Lucinea, Soleil, Selene
and maybe variant of Isabelle like Lisbeth, Isabel, Izabella, Eilis?
