Filler names, to be honest. Middles like [name_u]Marie[/name_u], [name_f]Grace[/name_f], [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]. Nothing wrong with those names, obviously, but usually quite predictable depending on the generation.

For me, simple would mean short and classic, like:

[name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_f]Leah[/name_f]
[name_f]Eve[/name_f]
[name_f]Mia[/name_f]

[name_f]Kate[/name_f]
