Hello! I’m writing a story that follows a healer, who gets mistaken as a witch by the puritan community she lives in. She’s very playful, and is struggling to fit into the communities expectations for what she’s supposed to act like, especially since she’s unmarried and is expected to step up to take care of her younger, sick sister. Any name ideas would be appreciated!

Sounds like an [name_f]Arabella[/name_f] or [name_f]Hannelore[/name_f] to me!
[name_f]Prudence[/name_f], it’s ironic because she has trouble living up to her name.
