Alot of Sephardim have Israeli names but so do the Ashkenazim. If you want something that really sounds Sephardic (Spanish) and not “Israeli” I would go with GumBalls sugestions of Fortune (Mazal) and I would also add Gloria(Simcha),Reina(Malka),Blanca, Estrella(Esther), Perla(Penina), etc.
There are also the Biblical names like Raquel (Rachel) Rebecca (Rivka), Sara, etc. Ps. Pronunciation is key!
Boys:Simon (Shimon), Jaime (Chaim),Jacobo(Yakov),Yoseph, Manuel (Emmanuel),Moises (Moshe), etc.
Depending also on which type of Sephardi you are the names can come from all over. You really need to be specific for which type of name you are looking for.
Hope this was helpfull!
