Names that start with A?

Hello all! I am looking for girl names that start with an A-- ideally 3 syllables that can be shortened with a nickname but I’m not too picky.

Some I like:
[name_f]Athena[/name_f] (nn Ena)
[name_f]Amara[/name_f] (nn Mara/Mars)

Any suggestions would be helpful! Thanks xx

Abigail - nn Abby, Gail, Abba
Annabel or Annabelle - nn Anna, Annie, Belle
Amybeth - nn Amy, Beth, Bethie
Amethyst - Amy
Anneliese or Annelise or Annalise - nn Annie, Lissy, Elise, Anna, Lisa
Allison or Alisyn - nn Ally, Ali, Alice
Alicia - nn Ali, Lissy (Lee-see), Cia (See-uh)
Amanda - nn Amma, Mandy, Amy
Arabella - nn Belle, Bella, Ari
Alana - nn Lana, Ally
Ariel - nn Ari, Ellie, Ella
