Outside not out of.

Well you can’t really have trendy but not in the top 100. It has to be either one of the other when you think about it.
Trendy means trending/popular.
A name out of the top 100 is far from trending.

I'd go classical (Greek/Roman) that have rarely, if ever been in the top 100 so shouldn't feel too dated - like Claudia, Antonia, Viola, Cecilia, Xanthe, Ianthe, Serena, Selene.

Or short, non-cutesy names could feel "fresh" - such as Lara, Cara, May, Faye, Gwen, Tess, Nia, Gaia.
