Long elegant non-frilly girls names

What sort of names come to mind with this description?

Long (with nickname potential)
Elegant/classic (nothing made up)
Feminine yet strong (not too ‘frilly’ sounding)

I have some ideas of my own but don’t want to sway anyone so would just like immediate thoughts.

Thanks! 😄
