Names for our child character

As a group we researched into children's names which would be appropriate for the news article in which the young girl is going to be featured. After much thought we carefully considered that her name had to be archaic and a common name used in the 60's and 70's as this was the year she went missing. It also had to represent some innocence of the figure as we discussed with the exorcism of Emily Rose, that would portray the young innocent child being overpowered by the source of evil.
Here are some of the names:

Alice: We thought that Alice connated innocence quite well as people would think of other films such as Alice in Wonderland. It was also one of the common names used in the 70's, however we thought that this name was too modern.

Autumn: It's quite a unique name yet we didn't think that it would connotate that the girl was from the 70's, as it's also quite a modern name.

Sophie:  This name like the others is also quite modern. We really wanted the name to stand out and really appear old fashioned.

Molly: We weren't sure about the name Molly. It would be our second choice however there are a large young population that are called Molly now.

Bonnie: We particularly liked Bonnie as it was quite an old fashioned name. It also seemed quite innocent as there is a Nursery rhyme called 'My Bonnie' which people might relate to their childhood.
