Salamanca reminds me of Salamanda! But it does sound cool
Names I would consider using because they are from books:
-
Scout -
Ophelia (
Hamlet)
-
Gemma (A Great and Terrible Beauty)
-
Hermione (
Harry Potter)
-
Arwen (LOTR)
-
Lilith or
Delilah (the Bible...I am not
Christian but I see them as strong women who questioned authority and conformity)
I am more inclined to name for female authors I admire though such as
Harriet Beecher Stowe,
Jane Austen, the
Bronte sisters,
Christine de Pizan and
Margaret Atwood.
