Really struggling for girls names

I seem to be the only person who struggles with girls names. Boys names I have sorted but I just don't seem to like any female names. My criteria is that I want a strong sounding name, nothing too frilly or flowery, something that a child can grow into and a tiny bit feminist!

Ahhhhh . . . when I was pregnant with DS last time I quite liked Ivy, Olive & Frida but I've gone off these now. My DH likes french names like Delphine and Cecille but I'm not so sure.

What do you think? Any suggestions

What is your DS called?

Frances

Really like Frances & margot but unfortunately there are reason why we can't use either of them. I am coming round to Delphine - I just don't love it. DS is Ernest
