Chloe sounds pretty, but also take into consideration if any of those sound weird with your last name, in case you haven't already. Good luck choosing a name!
If you want to also think of the name meanings I think Anya is beautiful and it means "gracious" or "bringing goodness". I also have always loved the name Violet and that means flower. I think you just have to look at yourself, who you are and go who am I? And think what name is you if that makes sense
Anya and Violet stand out to me the most. Anya sounds kind-of exotic, but I think that Violet is very pretty as well.
Do you want a name at all like your old name or completely different? That might be a consideration. Good luck!
One other thing to consider, if you don't want your name to stand out like a sore thumb is how common is it in your age group. I mean, as you meet people, if you don't want your name to stand out, it's good for people to have heard of others approximately your age with the same name. The only one of those that stands out to me is Anya. I've only heard of that name in the last few years, so it strikes me as a name for someone much younger than yourself.
That's absolutely correct. You may want to look at one of those sites that will have the popular names from the year you were born. For example a 60 year old "Britney" probably would sound strange.
