Once upon a time

I would like to find a girl name that makes me think of a character in a story such as these:

  • [name_f]Penelope[/name_f]: from the Iliad
  • Scheherazade: from 1001 nights

I think of them as beautiful, intelligent, strong, old fashioned women who are extremely feminine.
I can’t use [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] because it would be cruel for a girl to grow up with certain word in her name (it is hard to ignore in spanish and that is my native language) as for Scheherazade… well, it’s a bit of a mouthful.

Any ideas?
