Sophisticated and underused

We are are struggling to find girls names that we both like. Hoping for something quite strong and sophisticated. DH doesn't like anything too flowery.

We like things like Louisa, Susannah, Imogen... just to give an example. Hoping you could help with some more suggestions?
