Elegant, classic, timeless girls names?

I want to give my daughter an elegant, timeless name. Names like poppy, maisy etc are adorable but i can't imagine them for a grown woman. I really love the names Emma, Laura and Charlotte but i know so many or there's already one in the family so i'm looking for similar names which are a little bit less common.

I don't think any names are really timeless as they all go in and out of fashion. You've picked out Emma and Laura which are late 70s/early 80s names to me. Other nice names from a similar fold are:

Anna
Elizabeth
Rachel
Rebecca
Sarah
Claire
Joanna
Katherine
