I'm writing a fairy tale kind of story for school. A character that's a girl is perfect in everything she does and I want to give her a name that illustrates that, but I can't think of one. Maybe the word brave or courageous translated into Greek or Latin. I don't know, but if anyone has a good idea for name please write it.

How about Avril?
Was a country on my fantasy map for my first set of stories, but found out it's a girl's name much later.. such a name should serve her well, good luck, anyhows...

Penelope was a heroine and hero's wife who did everything right, but was blamed anyway (see Margaret Attwood's the Penelopiad for a modern reading).

Arely means brave in Hebrew. I actually think it's kind of pretty.
Brianna means strong in Gaelic and Valerie means strong in Latin.
You can do a search at the website below for meanings of names in their advanced search. You just have to search for a word in the meaning.
Personally I like Brianna.
