Stella - I'm not a big fan of this name. I'm sorry I can't particularly pinpoint the reason, I guess it just doesn't sound like a little girls' name to me. Plus, it reminds of Wanda Sykes (from her role in 'Over The Hedge')
Lorelei - I think it would be a pretty name for a girl. When she's little you could call her Lori or something along those lines, and then it would be a fitting name for an adult. It does remind me of Lorelei Gilmore from Gilmore Girls though.
Raquel - This isn't my favorite. I (personally) would not name a child this, and if I did, it would probably be a boy. This name sounds more masculine than feminine to me.
Coral - Once again, I would not name a little girl this, just because it reminds me of the coral reef, and it just doesn't seem like an acutal NAME.
Iris - This is a very sweet and pretty name. Do take this into reason though. What if the girl ended up being a complete tomboy. I don't think she would like the name Iris very much. Otherwise it is a lovely name.
Lilya - It's fine, but there would be some pretty big pronounciation and spelling problems. Otherwise it is just fine.
Sofia - This is my favorite name out of your options, but once again, you have the tomboy probelm. This seems like a very delicate, sweet name, and I don't think she would like to be know as delicate and sweet (assuming she is a tomboy). This is my favorite name out of these though.
Hope this helps!

Stella . . . This is such a pretty and rare name. I like it.
Lorelei . . . This name always reminds me of Marilyn Monroe's character from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. It always creates this image of this funny, ditzy girl -- in a good way :) . I think it's a pretty name.
Raquel . . . I love this name, it's so beautiful. I also like the spelling Racquel.
Coral . . . I find this name too old-fashioned . I don't like it.
Iris. . . I feel the same way with this name as I did about Coral. It's too old-fashioned for my tastes.
Lilya...It's cute, but the pronunciation kind of confuses me. I don't know whether to say it (lil-ya) or (lil-lee-ah).
Sofia. . .I love this name so much. I think it's so classic and beautiful.
I would say my favorite out of the list would have to be Sofia. :)

I like Stella and Sophia (not Sofia spelling).
Lorelei looks pretty on paper, but it's too much of a mouthful and sounds granny.
Raquel sounds like racketball, made up from Rachel.
Coral reminds me of that mean girl on TV, and I just never liked it for a name, it sounds cold.
Iris sounds like an old lady.
Lilya is weird, why not just Lily.

either sofia or raquel but it reall depends on where you live and what is common or what is normal because names are always different in different countries and areas of the world.
