Me and my husband are expecting a baby girl, and can't decide on a name. Our last name is von Gniesenau (pronounced guy-se-now). We are trying to pick a name that shows my and my husbands heritage. My husband is pure German and I am German (half) and the other is Hungarian, Polish, Czech, Russian and Ukrainian.
The names are:
Verena
Helena
Julia
Eleonora
Lena
James
Daniel
Abigail
Anna
Elisabeth
Hanna
Leah
Lydia
Rachel
Rebecca
Susannah
Alla
Anastasiya
Halyna
Klara
Mariya
Sofiya
Aleksandra
Angela
Ania
Diana
Elena
Eva
Galina
Inga
Irina
Marianna
Marina
Nadya
Viktoryia
Yuliya
Adrianna
Liesl
Kreszentia
Kaethe
Kathrin
Thanks!

A first name with a "G" or "uy/i" sound in it will flow well with your last name.
I think the following our of your list work best:
Abigail Gniesenau
Angela Gniesenau
Inga Gniesenau
Julia Gniesenau
Elisabeth Gniesenau
Lydia Gniesenau
Anastasiya Gniesenau
Mariya Gniesenau
Sofiya Gniesenau
Ania Gniesenau
Diana Gniesenau
Irina Gniesenau
Marianna Gniesenau
Marina Gniesenau
Viktoryia Gniesenau
Adrianna Gniesenau
Yuliya Gniesenau
Liesl Gniesenau
Kreszentia Gniesenau
Kathrin Gniesenau
My favorites out of those are: Abigail, Julia, Elisabeth, Lydia, Anastasiya, Sofiya, Diana, Marina, Viktoryia, Yuliya and Liesl. With Julia being my top choice.
Hope that helps you choose a little better. :)

I think you should pick something fairly easy since your last name is not very easy to pronouce.
I like the name RIDGE...it sounds very cool. And for a girl...I like the name KIRA.
Good Luck and Congratulations.

My friend is Russian-German and she spells her name Anastasija. So maybe you should look into that, I just think the "j" looks really cool.
Also, I think Adrianna is a nice name.
