Bouncy vintage girls names

Hi All! This question is inspired by a comment I read on a previous thread “Recommend a girl name”. Someone listed [name_f]Jemima[/name_f], [name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] and [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] together - [name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] being my favourite name of all time and what we’re planning to call our baby if it’s a girl.

I love all of these names and they’re on my list for potential future siblings for [name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] but it got me thinking, what other names are there like this. I’m thinking specifically three syllable, vintage, bouncy sounding girls names that would fit right in with this trio! What would you add to this list?

Personally I immediately think of [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]! I also like:

Allegra
[name_f]Caroline[/name_f] (modern and vintage at the same time!)
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] (i know it isn’t a well-liked name, but I picture the sweetest little girl!)
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] ([name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] and [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] have a lovely ring)
[name_f]Eugenia[/name_f]
[name_f]Helena[/name_f] (my favorite!)
[name_f]Lillian[/name_f]
[name_f]Ophelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Ramona[/name_f]
[name_f]Samantha[/name_f] (I think this sounds lovely with [name_f]Matilda[/name_f], I would be hesitant to use with [name_f]Tabitha[/name_f] because of Bewitched)
[name_f]Virginia[/name_f]
[name_f]Susannah[/name_f]
[name_f]Naomi[/name_f]
[name_f]Agatha[/name_f]
[name_f]Lydia[/name_f]
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f] or [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] (my guilty pleasure names)
[name_f]Minerva[/name_f]
[name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f]
