Girls names you might not find in a baby names book

After two DS's I was so excited to start looking for a girls name. However, after reading our baby names book and various online searches, there aren't many I'm liking!

So, which names might I have missed? Any girls names you don't often see on lists? I like a mix of names including classic, strong, bit quirky. Names you don't hear every day, but not so unique they will be teased or spend their lives spelling it out. Help!

Also I took two very short, simple, fairly ordinary names and hyphenated them. I have never met another person with my dds name and everyone always says how lovely and unusual it is.
