I guess that depends on whether you mean ancient egyptian names or modern egyptian names.
If it's ancient egyptian here's a two links to names and naming practices of ancinet egyptians
http://www.geocities.com/wally_mo/names.html
http://touregypt.net/featurestories/names.htm
if it's modern egyptian names then I'd personally reccomend a few and then also there is links of names as well.
Names I'd reccomend:
Aaliyah, Amina, Naima, Samia, Suhaila, Sara, Sohair, Taheya, Nagwa, Ameera, Samah, Samar, Jehan, Yasmine or Leila. Not neccesarrily in that order.

Poor souls all they can think of is basic stuff from fith grade Ancient Egypt classes.
I would go for the following:
Modern day Egypt:
Mai -Sara (eq. to Paloma or Dove) ( would suit upper middle class kinda of girl)
Kamilla ( erudite sounding name pretty well educated full of life) ( Means Completion/present perfection)
Bethna ( Meaning beatiful)
Beauthaina ( meaning possessing great beauty , metaphysical and physical)
Reau- maysa ( Gorgeous name cant remeber the meaning but its pretty poetic).
Zizi ( Short for Zaynab)
Mimi ( short for Maryam)
fifi ( short for something)
Lou Lou ( meaning pearl)
Anyway these are some names to start with.

Havent been to Egypt yet. Anyhow, this here's my suggestions, not necessary for this girl only. Names are contemporary to Egypt now ( 20th century ).
Amonrae
Meera Selvarajah
Otep d/o Omar
Rabiatul d/o Rasyid
Soraya d/o Abdullah
Syeikh Al Ahmed
Katia d/o Ishmael
Al Misbun
Matahari
Hejab Walau

Ah, you didn't indicate whether the story is set in the Egypt of antiquity or of the present day. The time period makes a huge difference!
Of modern (Arabic) Egyptian names, I like Sahar, meaning something like "bewitching".
A good name in the ancient language is Nofret, "beauty" (roughly).
Much luck on the story!

I won't suggest any names but disregard the ignorant answers that state names that haven't been used for more than 7'000 years (i.e. Cleopatra + other pharaonic names)
