So many female names are just variations of a guy's name, for example: Roberta, Paula, Victoria, Stephanie, Danielle.
As a writer, seeking names for characters--and in the interest of promoting feminism--I'd like to see how many names we can come up with that are purely feminine.

Eleanor, Daphne, Elizabeth & variations, Susan & variations, Mary & variations, Eve, Yolanda, Barbara, Jennifer, Catherine & variations. That's just out of my head in 30 seconds. If you need character names, I suggest the baby name book "Beyond Jennifer and Jason, Madison and Montana" by Linda Rosenkrantz and Pamela Redmond Satran. They use surveys and scientific research to tell you not just what's popular, but what these names make people think of; girls names that make most people think they're smart, for instance. I got both my daughters' names from the book and they are complimented often, even now that they're 12 and 10.
