Under used girl names?

what are some of your favourite non popular girl names / underused girl names? I love elegant but simple names such as Violet and Harper but they are too popular for me :(

Not for children currently. They are 70s/80s names.

Ophelia? I know someone who named her daughter this recently, but I've not heard it anywhere else.

leccybill None of those are underused! They're exceptionally popular.

I like these names.

Really? Fair enough. I love Violet but Harper is too harsh sounding.

Yeah very high on the popularity lists, worried they are "trendy" too

Too popular? Confused I've never met a Violet or a Harper in my life!
