Long girl names

Please could you help me with some wonderfully underused long girl names (bonus if they have potential nicknames). I tend to be drawn to names like:

Valentina
Marcella
Dorothea
Francesca (but too popular)
Paloma
Evangeline

The more, the better! ☺️

Somebody has already mentioned my favorite long name, Alexandrina, which was Queen Victoria's actual first name. I think it's so pretty, and lots of potential nick names.

Shaherazade (from 1001 nights)
