Quintessa is too princessy, IMO. If it's not for an emperess or princess in a story, then I wouldn't use it. Nerissa can also be a little bit princessy, but I can also envision it as naturey (even though it's not particularly a nature name). It keeps the whole "issa" vibe without being to overly frilly. And it reminds me of Naiads and Nereids. :) Hazel is good, but nery different from the others. It's also slightly reminiscent of Heather, which gives off a 70's vibe that I don't really care for.
