Slightly unusual traditional baby girl names?

[Amygdala]

Hi ladies! I was wondering if you could inspire me? DH and I are still looking for the perfect girls' name (although we're not even pregnant yet). We've had our boy's name for literally years now so we feel we have to catch up on a girls name.
A few we like but can't use for various reasons (or just aren't quite right) are:
Elsa
Elena
Alina
Luisa
Martha (mar-tah)
Katherina (car-ter-ee-na)
Sophia

We're looking for something quite unusual but not too exotic or made-up sounding. It should end in 'a' and be easily pronounced in other languages, so no 'th' and the like. A feminine but formal name that can be shortened to something cute would be ideal.

Thanks for your ideas!!!

Since you like Martha, have you considered Marya (mar-yah)?

I've always loved the name Aja (pronounced "Asia"). I also like Veronica but I don't know about the V sound if you're concerned about it being easily pronounced in other languages. It could be shortened to Ronnie. Likewise, Victoria ends in "a" and could be shortened to Tori.
