I think Eowyn and Galadriel are similar and both vastly preferable to Arwen who doesn't seem to have any personality in her own right and merely is a poor imitation of someone else.

Arwen is not in the books a lot, but I don't see why you fault what we find.
Nor do I see any similarity between Galadriel and Eowyn. Eowyn was a depressed suicidal girl, who had lost virtually everything that mattered to her. She was desperate for any means of escape even if it was just riding into the Paths of the Dead. Deep down Eoywn had now desire to be a warrior or a great queen. She just wanted a meaning role in life and respect.
Galadriel is a very different kettle of fish and from a different background.
