Freya is my favorite. It sounds like a Nordic queen. It is a name that makes me think of dark green mature foliage and nature in the peak of summer.
If I lived in a different time period and the meaning of gay was just "happy, light heartedly cheerful," then I would like Gaia more. I like the idea of an earth goddess, although Gaia has a heaviness to it like Bertha.
Ada is the duller option of the three. It isn't bad, but it has a spartan minimalist sensibility to it that I like more in some moods than in others.

Freya is very pretty, summery, and a lime green colour.
Gaia sounds kind of somber and ominous. I don't care much for the sound either.
Ada is glossy and shiny in an Old Hollywood way. I like it in English, but not in Polish - A-da sounds harsh to me.
Together, Freya and Gaia or Freya and Ada could work, but not all three together. Freya and Gaia are both earthy and mythological, and Freya and Ada are both short and trendy and British, but Gaia and Ada don't match.

I generally prefer Maia over Gaia as I'm dyslexic and used to have a speak impediment that still will occasionally show up when I'm nervous and this is such a name I would stumble with reading allowed though I do know how it is pronounced it would be fumbled in practice. I generally prefer names that are relatively clear on pronunciation the first read for that reason. I like Ada but only when it is pronounced as Add-ah not aw-da or ay-da. Freya isn't my favorite it always makes me think of frayed fabric.

I hate Freya and Ada but I knew a Gaia and she was wild and chaotic but suited her name so well and I dont mind it as much as a result I think. I wouldn't use any of them but theyre not bad names, Ada is my least favourite though, it feels too blockish and fat to me, not sure why.
They do work well together though, as a sibset or friends even.
