Rare girls names that aren't too 'crazy'

Just as the title says really...looking for an unusual/rare girls name that isn't too unusual if that makes sense!

Only name we like and can agree on is Jessica/Jessie. I quite like names like Bethany, Ebony, Emma and Hannah that I think of as recognisable but aren't that commonly used. DP prefers top 10 names but I would prefer something not as common. DS is Elliott so would like it to sound nice when said with his name.

If you like Jessie, what about Jessany? Beautiful name and very underused.

Bethany, Emma, Hannah and Jessica are fairly mainstream TBH.

Only Ebony sounds unusual/rare to me.

I have recently had a little girl and named her Pearl 😊

My friend named her little girl Rosali
