Three syllable girls names

Expecting dc3 and currently have two DDs. We are all sorted if it's a boy but struggling a bit for girls' names. To fit with our DDs we want a three syllable name ending in 'a' and we just can't find one. There must be some that we aren't thinking of! Any ideas welcome Smile

Wow, about 99% (not accurate) of the names mentioned end in an 'a'.

My daughter had a Genava in her class this past year. Same emphasis on the syllables as Genevieve, but a 'vuh' sound instead of the 'veeve' sound at the end. I hadn't heard it before, but it really grew on me. Loads of good suggestions in previous posts. :)

Doesn't end in a but what about Margaret or Annabel?

I think Sylvia is three syllables. Irene can be.
