Looking for a beautiful girls name that isn't in the ie/y/ia/a style

E.g names that end like this:
Thalia, Maria, Lucia, Sophia, Ophelia, Olivia, Amelia, Tia, Mia, Mila, Nova
Isla, Eliza, Aaliyah, Sienna, Luna, Lola, Ella, Rosa, Bella, Ava, Seraphina, Ivy, Ottilie, Rosie, Darcey, Amelie, Lottie, Evie, Elsie, Milly, Lucy, Paisley, Lily etc.

I hope this isn't too picky. I don't have a strong dislike for any of these names I'm just interested in discovering names that are not a part of this trend
Thank you! :D

Grace, Iris, Catherine, Jane, Louise, Sarah, Deborah, Helen, Eleanor, Briony, Rachel, Frances, Claire.

I think anything traditional and timeless will get you away from the more cutesy names.
