Pretty Scottish girls names

We gave DS a very Scottish name with a Gaelic spelling (Ruairidh) which I still love, and which he suits. Now I'm completely stuck for Scottish girls names. DH is adamant that it be a Scottish name.

I'm really struggling to find Scottish girls names that sound pretty and elegant. They all either feel really harsh or quite chavvy. Any ideas?

@Seline I like Fiona, unfortunately it's DH's exgf's name.

I’m Irish, not Scottish, but I think Muireann is Scots Gaelic (?) and a beautiful name.

Fiona? Quite classy and underused.
