I like how it is unusual, with roots and sounds slightly fancy...but the sound is not exactly what I am looking for. Any suggestions?

Note: I would prefer to avoid names ending in -a, just a pet peeve of mine.) Other names I am fond of; Genevieve, Rosalind, Beatrix, Calypso. Also please don't suggest any more Shakespeare as I have been through all of them!

Thanks! :)

Callista, should be pronounced with emphasis on the 'Cal' (a bit like Alistair) rather than like calISTa flockhart. I'm in love with this name.
