Old Testament / Hebrew baby names

I have three children and I’m currently pregnant with my fourth. I’ve unintentionally used Old Testament names for my children as they were the names that I love - Caleb, Levi and Esther. I kind of feel like I’m stuck on a theme now and I can’t go rogue with my fourth Smile. If we end up having a boy there are loads of Hebrew names that I like but if it’s a girl, I’m struggling to find one, especially that goes with the names I have! Any suggestions?!

My favourite OT ladies names are Esther (which you have), Judith and Miriam.

Another vote here for Jael - not your stereotypical woman at all. Also I love Deborah but not keen on Debbie.

Jemima is lovely as well.

Before committing to a name if you are choosing it for it's Biblical usage it might be good to check the context - Sapphira for instance is a pretty name but not the best role model!
