The names above- are they really male names made into gurl names? I heard it’s not good to give a girl a boy name that was made from a boy name. Any idea?

Alternatively, I know girls named Arielle, Gabrielle, and Zohar. You don't need the ah at the end. Not sure if that solves your issue though.

I know a boy named Zohar, didn't know it's a girl's name too. I would definitely add the ah. Alternatively I know girls named Zahara.

They are feminine names taken from boys’ names. I would ask a Rav. I know plenty of other girls name that stem from masculine names (Yosefa, Davida, Daniella, etc) that are common enough to prove that there is a variety of rabbinic opinions on the matter.

I have nothing against these names religiously, but I'm prejudiced against male names that are feminized by adding an "a" . They just strike me as hokey in any language, but in Hebrew most of all.
