silly topic: Feminist Girls' names?

[blackcurrants]

I'm in a rather silly mood today - lighthearted topic time!

I mentioned on the 'which political parties' thread that my fabulously egalitarian DH has put a moratorium on my (mainly humorous) suggestions for feminist-heroine baby names. So sorry, Millicent Fawcett - no Millies in my house. Ditty Emmelines, even though Mrs Pankhurst was kinda awesome. Why? Cos his DS is Emily and it would be 'too confusing'...
Also no Florence (though Flo Nightingale's status as 'feminist' is a bit questionable), no Margaret.. basically, as he put it, 'no old lady names!'. Damnit, before I'd even suggested Edith!

So, which girls' names do you love that are strong, graceful, and sound like they could grow up to run the country/build their own empires in the future?

(Disclaimer: we might have a DS and that's ok, cos we've got a couple of boys' names that we mutually love. If it's a DD, though, the shortlist is rather less certain. No pressure, though - you're not actually NAMING our DD for us, I just like hearing cool girls' names, and if they're associated with strong, awesome women, all the better!)

Old thread, but I miss blackcurrants. Unless someone still is her...

Vestal: it's really interesting what you say about Alice not sounding like an old lady name. I'm elderly. DH's aunt was called Alice. She was born in 1898! It was very popular pre World War 1.

Yet one of the names OP's DH mentioned as an 'old lady name' was at least 50 years younger in terms of 'fashion'.

A lot of the popular names now e.g. Alice, Emily, Emma, Louise, Victoria, Sarah are, in fact, 'old lady names'. Just being recycled! I guess everything comes around again if you wait long enough.

20 years from now maybe Susan, Barbara, Margaret, Mary, Anne etc. - all popular in the 40s/50s will be on the way back

Not sure how a name can be feminist really.
