Okay, this is looking like it's gonna be a long post.. I'm gonna break it down into little bits.
From our initial list, these are the ones I think sound best with Galloway:
Clara Galloway
Alexandra Galloway (but I don't really care for Alexandra as a first name)
Cordelia Galloway
Petra Galloway
Octavia Galloway
I like the rest as middle names, though – I think the only ones left were Mariel, Lorelei and Miriam.

My breakdown of your list: with notes under each name...
Love:
Verity
I don't particularly care for Verity with Galloway, but I do really love the name. It would make a great middle though?
Diana
I really love this name, but I am a bit of a nickname person so I really especially like it in the middle.
Lillian
Lovely, getting a little popular, but still very charming. I like it a lot.
Miranda
I really, really love this and the nickname Mira. I think it works marvellously with Galloway.
Like:
Elise
Nice, but a bit bland. I would love Elisabeth as a full name for it.
Christine
A bit dated, but would sound nice in the middle.
Aurora
I find Aurora a bit boring and overly princess-y. It's still quite nice though.
Olivia
Too popular for me personally, I prefer the less popular Olive.
Felicity
I prefer the male form – Felix – but I can appreciate Felicity's beauty. But since it doesn't flow well with Galloway I've put it here. I would like it in the middle, perhaps?
Azalea
A bit out there, but I do like it.
Dislike:
Kiera
I prefer Keira. Too popular though.
Aria
It feels insubstantial to me.
Vanessa
Dated in a bad way to me. :-\
Piper
Unfeminine...
Fiona
I have an irrational dislike for Fiona from my mother.
Rowena
I don't like the sound of this – but I really like Rowan.
Claudia
Harsh sounding.
Katrina
Hurricane Katrina is all I can think of and I'm not even American!
Ophelia
Oh Feel Ya. Sorry. :(
Raven
Seems silly and melodramatic to me, unfortunately. :(
