Germaine. Because of Greer. Not necessarily a bad thing though.
Americans go in for quite masculine names. Taylor, Tucker, etc...
An ex-colleague has recently named her DD Bryce.
Charlie/Charley.
Brodie
Brontë
Alex (Alexandra)
Sam (Samantha)
Jo (Joanna, Josephine)

If you want a 'strong' name, go for a consonant (or consonant sound) at the end. Surname names are another possibility, but I'm not keen unless they are actually your grandmother's maiden name etc.
From my generation I think Helen, Kate, Rachel sound strong.

What about Erica, Philippa. Peta, or Jacqueline. I like Erica a lot. Its a name that's difficult to shorten and for me that's one of the main things I consider as I find it difficult to get my head round why people choose a name and then shorten it!

Why? Because I don't like any girly or feminine names. That doesn't mean I'll name my daughter John or something, I just like unisex names.
