OP, it really depends on your circles. Most of these names would never go over well in my community.

Would a girl named Aviva really feel out of place in a chassidish classroom? I’m “just plain frum” but to me Aviva is way more mainstream and common than your other examples, Yakira and Hodaya.

Aviva is odd for a girl in a chasidish environment.

Your circles will make a huge difference here. I’m chassidish and if a kid in my daughters class was yakira, Aviva, hodaya, and many other names listed here, it would be really weird and the kids might feel out of place her entire life. Be careful.

Really interesting I wouldn’t put aviva in that category, in yeshivish circles aviva is mainstream but you won’t find Yakira or hodaya

Please don't give your daughter a name that means fatal or 'subject to death.'

Aviva in Israel is pretty outdated. You might find women in their 40's/50's with that name.

If you loved Ahuva, would you like Aviva? Very close in sound.

Or Ahava, or Avia.

my daughters
Elisheva
named after aharon hacohens wife
Efrat
(another name for miriam-moshe rabeinus sister- also meaning fruitful and multiply)
Ruti- another favorite
and Yehudit - gorgoues very very JEWISH- which I think is befitting
