When looking at which characters can get their own Netflix series (usually because they're too gritty to get a film but can be done on a TV budget), these are the names which come to mind. Which one do you want the most?

Elektra
Moon Knight
Blade
Shang Chi
 
I feel like Moon Knight is imminent. Especially if Iron Fist or Luke Cage don't meet expectation or Marvel decides to combine them.
 
I'd watch Elektra in a heartbeat and would be super interested in Moon Knight too. I think we need more female lead shows on Netflix. Give it to her and have it be a political/assassination thriller.

Blade would be too weird on Netflix and Shang Chi could be good but you also have Iron Fist which is similar in tone (I've never read his comics so don't get mad).
 
For now I just can't see Elektra. I think Elodie Yung was good, but I can't see her carrying her own solo TV series.
 
^I think Elektra was low-key miscast.

I think someone Marvel-y mentioned something about Ava Ayala/White Tiger as a potential series, which sounds really interesting, depending on how its done. Of that list, Moon Knight sounds the most interesting, but all of those seem like they'd be better used as supporting characters for stronger solos, except maybe Blade, but even he'd fit into a Moon Knight if they went the Khonshou route.

The only Netflix series that would excite me by name only is She-Hulk. Maybe Spectrum or Spider-Woman, depending on how they were doing them.

I think she'd probably be better suited for a Freeform series like Cloak and Dagger. If it's younger teen version of Ava.
 
I gotta be honest, I always felt Elektra worked better as a supporting character then a protagonist, so I am not too interested in her own show.

I think they'll do a Midnight Sons series if they want to venture into Blade's territory. The MCU hasn't ventured into horror yet. Plus, Morbius.
 
Netflix doesn't seem too keen on adding more Marvel shows to their originals. So until one of the series is canceled or on hiatus I doubt they'll be adding another one. Unless they see how Luke Cage's popularity crashed their service and think "we need more of these" it's not gonna happen.

However, putting that aside I don't want to see an Elektra spin off because I don't think she can maintain a separate series. She works really well as a supporting character but the way she has been written doesn't quite work as the main protagonist for me. Besides you're not gonna get that many series so if you have the opportunity to add a show to the line up you want to add something different. Elektra is a ninja assassin, we already have a ninja show with Daredevil who is essentially an urban ninja. Shang Chi would be redundant since Iron Fist is already a kung fu inspired show. Same with Spider-woman, a female private detective with a checkered past is already what Jessica Jones is, unless they go the double agent route which again would be a spy story that AoS for better or worse already covers. She-Hulk, as a public superhero lawyer, would essentially be a cross between Daredevil and Luke Cage. So while I would love all of those characters to have shows, I wouldn't bet on it.

I think Moon Knight could be interesting, but I'd like the next series to be very different. Maybe something leaning towards horror like McSir said, I think Blade would make a great choice, Morbius would work great as a supporting character. I also hoped Ghost Rider would get a series in the vein of Supernatural, road trip across america fighting demons. But with AoS you can kiss that goodbye. Maybe Brother Voodoo as a Dr Strange esgue hero. Depending on the deal with Sony I'd love to have a Black Cat series
