Girl's name to go with Tom?

Need help with a girl's name to go with Tom (Thomas) We've got the boy's name sorted, William if it's a little brother.
I really wanted to avoid anything ending in an 'ee' sound, like Daisy, Lily, Emily, Sophie...as my surname ends like this.
Thinking of Elizabeth and Harriet as potential middle names and really like traditional Victorian girls names.
Suggestions please!

My immediate thought was Alice

I know someone whose DS is a Thomas and his sister is Madeline but not sure that goes so well with Tom.
