Tough pregnancy and looking for baby girl's names that mean strong or similar

Hey all
Looking for baby girl names that have a meaning like strong or brave or warrior or something in that vein

My baby was almost born at 25 weeks but she's still in and going strong, we'd like a name that reflects how we think of her, but haven't found anything meaningful and pretty

Any thoughts ? Smile

I LOVE Valentina.
Such a beautiful but strong girls name.
Was on my list of potential names when I was pregnant.

Athena is wonderful too.

Maude- battle mighty
Aila - from the strong place
Bree - strength

I see Bridget has already been mentioned. I know a little Bridget whose parents chose it loving the meaning of 'strength' as well as the strong sounds of the name.

I was going to suggest Leona

I called my baby Matilda as she had a lot of issues when she was born. The 'mighty in battle' meaning suited her struggles. She goes by Tilly
