Some interesting mainly french ones since theyre really the only names I know a lot about, I think you could remove accent marks a la Genevieve or Elodie on most of these.
Eurydice
Capucine
Cléophée (prn clee oh fee)
Maïwenn (prn my-wenn)*
Rose-Mai (prn rose - may/meh)*
Berthille
Athenais (prn like "a-té-na-ï-ss" or "ah-tee -nah-ees" not sure which is easier to understand) This is the mn we will use for a girl
Althéa
Anthéa
Astrée (mythological: Astraea in English)
Léocadie
Ludivine (well known but maybe interesting here?)
Anaïs
Danae
Rhea
Azalée (prn A zah lee - a like "at") this is Azalea in French, I think it's very usable
Zélie (prn more like "zee lee" or "zeh/zey lee" at the most in French but people here say "zay lee" so maybe you could just say what you want) I go back and forth between not caring about this name and loving it. It's a very old form of Solène.
*these are as accurate as I can describe them, I'm really bad at phonetic prn but you can probably hear most of them forvo.com if you like them or are unsure of how to say it.Last edited by thetxbelle; June 20th, 2012 at 09:45 PM.

Mafalda - my sister's boyfriend's neice is actually named this (Swedish married to Portuguese man), cute
Allouette - cute but makes me think of the song, and isn't that about plucking birds?
Anemone - I like it a lot but it's not heavy enough for me, and I think it's another one that would end up an Emma (it even sounds like saying "an Emily")
Clotilde - like but doesn't seem feminine enough
Moxie - like it; what about Pixie?
You had a lot of good ones that were repeats too, augusta_lee. I like your style!

I just thought of a random one, I think I got it from a cartoon, but what about Musa? (sounds like music except ends with an -uh sound)
