Need 1600 style name!

I’m writing a fic about vampires and I need help naming my MC.

The Mc is a female born in 1610 as she is 10 (almost eleven) when her family decides to head on the Mayflower. She then is orphaned on the Mayflower and left to be raised by her older brother of two years. She is 20 (almost 21) at the point that the Mayflower lands and then is changed into a vampire only two years later when her brother is killed by the same vampire.

I was thinking [name_u]Damaris[/name_u] or [name_f]Priscilla[/name_f] but I’m not quite sure. I also need a nn that would fit into modern day culture.

Amara
[name_f]Lilith[/name_f]. Since it’s in the 1600s, maybe she could go by [name_f]Lily[/name_f] then?
[name_u]Sierra[/name_u]
[name_f]Lyla[/name_f]
[name_f]Mary[/name_f]

I tried to find names with dark-ish meanings. Lmk if you want something different.

Lol I have an ancestor named [name_f]Priscilla[/name_f] who came on a ship just after the Mayflower so it’s crazy to me that you’re considering that! I have to put my vote in for [name_f]Priscilla[/name_f] haha.
