Isla (or at least it was a few years ago)
Juno (ditto)
Elsie
Anything excessively old lady-ish (Edna, Vera, Queenie, etc)

Yes to Greta and Margot. Ultimate hipster names.
In a similar vein, Frieda, Ines, Agnes
Annie, Lotta, Ottilie

AWafferthinmint · 17/02/2018 22:11

Clementine
Florence

Rhubarbginmum · 17/02/2018 22:14

Agree with all of @perfectnight suggestions and would also include Martha and Kizzy to the list.

Biscuitsneeded · 17/02/2018 22:14

Maude
Vera
Sylvia(but I like it)
Irene

I don't agree that Isla is a hipster name. It's quite pretty but there a billion Islas round here born to perfectly normal and non-hipster families.

Cleo
Lark
Agnes

I love this kind of name though!

Perfectnight · 17/02/2018 22:55

Some granny chic names are not hipster. A lot of them are very girly and cutesie.

David Cameron's kid's called Florence ergo it cannot be a hipster name

squoosh · 17/02/2018 23:29

I'd imagine the hipsters either go for 1950s style names like Pamela or Sybil or austere Euro names like Marit or Petra.

Thisusernamethingistricky · 17/02/2018 23:30

The two Clemmies (who knew Clementine was such a popular name?) on Instagram, as in Mother of Daughters and the other one (Telford?) have got kids called Greta and Ottilie/Delilah - all very hipster.
