Ruth and Ruby are beautiful! (i'm into Ru-names right now, like Rupert, Rufus etc.)
Mary is still used somewhat, although it dropped out of the top 100 in this USA for the first time in probably ever. I live in Massachusetts, where there is a high Catholic population-- you still hear Mary a lot on little girls here. I like Rosemary better than Mary Rose, but Mary Rose is pretty too.
Zinnia is pretty.
Adelaida is kind of a tongue twister (ad el AID a)? It sounds kind of like "little lady" to me! I love Adelaide and Adeline, though. Adelina is kind of nice as well.
I think I'd go with Lola and Lolita as a nickname-- there's too much baggage with Lolita alone still, I think! I'm not a big fan of Dolores.
Love Cedric-- Rayne is totally nms. My cousin had a baby boy and named him Rain. I think he's about a year old now...
