Strong girls name - please no Ava, Eva, Edie, Isla, Bella, Milly, Lilly, Molly arrgh!

[Wannabuyawatch]

Don´t know if DC3 is a boy or girl yet. 2 ds are called Louis & Oscar, so if its a girl, I want a strong, cool name.
Not keen at all on overly girly names Bella, Billy, Milly, Zilly, Bella, Mella, Molly, Lilly, Mia, Maya...you know what I mean! Beautiful for some, just not for me...
So far I like Mimi (family reasons), Clara (my husband is Spanish) and Indie.
Any other clever MN suggestions?

Straong names for girls for me are Elizabeth, Frances, C/Katherine, Louisa.

What about Marisol or Miriam and you could call her Mimi? I love those names.

Agnes
Viola
Rumer
Kady

Harriett, she can be Harry for short and fit right in with the boys!

Georgia
Charlotte
Tamsin
Scarlett
Danielle
Anna
Jemima
Rebecca

Hecate
Astrid
Victoria
Marsha
Helen
Storm
Zelda
Ursula
Mignon

We chose Sophia for our girl - means wisdom. I apply the "high court judge" test - i.e. could you see a judge called by that name. Counts out the more "cutesy" ones. If we'd had another girl, we had chosen Isobel as the next name. I also like Alannah (there's a series of childrens books called "Song of the Lionness" where the female protagonist is called Alannah that I really liked as a child), Hypatia (female librarian and philosopher in ancient Alexandria) or Portia (strong female character in the Shakespeare play "Merchant of Venice").

Beatrix
Nina
Ines/Inez

Miriam is quite strong, and then Mimi would work as a nickname.

Ingrid, Astrid, Francesca...

Elspeth

I agree with the classic suggestions: Elizabeth, Catherine, Alexandra etc.

my Grandma is Molly and about the fiercest woman imaginable so I always pmsl at it being cutesy/soft!

I do think Agnes is nice, and Ines. OK, am cringeing at sounding sad but would like some "cool" factor to the name that you don´t really get with Elizabeth, Francesca etc - Like someone saying, "I know this family who called their daughter a really cool name..."
I quite like Roxy??

Are you a jazz fan btw?

PS Mumsnet is great isn´t it? I am currently on bed rest for low placenta and bleeding so this is a brilliant way to pass the time!

I've always loved Ramona.

Love Clara. Could consider:
Hesther
Miriam
Nancy
Agatha
Penelope
Eliza
Ramona
Cecily
Paloma

I'm sort of lol-ing at not wanting girly names but then liking Mimi.

Anyway, if I could pick and DH wasn't his usual arse of a self I'd go with Ramona.

Persephone

Vashti
Morven
Rhiannon
Meredith
Athena

Madelaine
Rosemary
Indra

recently met a baby named Edith

Emmy is lovely

Judith

Rachel

Ruth

I agree Elizabeth is good.

Mimi, Indie and Roxy aren't what I consider to be cool names.

Hester, Violet, Ingrid, Astrid have an edge to them at the moment.

Anna - such a beautiful, strong name
