What names seem to fit these characteristics for you? I also have in mind this; “Though she be but little, she is fierce!” -[name]Shakespeare[/name]. For me, some examples are [name]Fiona[/name], [name]Beatrix[/name], [name]Zelda[/name], Camilla, Eloise and [name]Ruby[/name]. I also sometimes think [name]Clementine[/name] fits because of sound, but the meaning, “mercy” makes me picture a gentler sort of girl. I’d love to see what you berries think! Names that would suit a girl and a woman, complicated, talented, impulsive, intelligent, one who knows her own mind…
[name]Calypso[/name]
[name]Calista[/name]/[name]Calixta[/name]
[name]Ophelia[/name]
[name]Ravyn[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name]
[name]Aurora[/name]
[name]Athena[/name]
[name]Isolde[/name]
All of these are found in literature and represent women who were more or less distinguished and strong women with great or powerful qualities and personalities. [name]Hope[/name] some of these catch your ear and can help. good luck.
