Arabella is definitely frilly and fussy. It's one of those try too hard names for me. I definitely have a bias against this name. It makes me think of a 12 year old girl trying to make a character, gothic and romantic but only succeeding in making a terrible Mary Sue. It's trying to be better and fresher than Isabella but doesn't succeed.

I don't much like Daphne either, but I'd rather be a Daphne then Arabella. Araballa does seem a bit much next to your other choices.
