Nameberry

Created by the style-conscious authors of Beyond Jennifer and Jason, Madison and Montana, you will find lots of lists on this site!  http://nameberry.com/search/advanced

 

Classic, Stylish, Avant-Garde, Vintage, International and Unisex are the six main categories.  Not sure what those terms mean or what kind of names you prefer?  I experimented by asking for a 3-syllable girl name starting with M.  The number in (parentheses) says how many it found, I’ve included two examples of each name.

 

Classic (6): Margaret and Miriam
Stylish (5): Madeline and Miranda
Avant-Garde (0):  [WHEN I DID NOT SPECIFY INITIAL OR SYLLABLES, IT GAVE ME  NAMES LIKE Lyric, Paisley, Persephone, Ravenna and Story]
Vintage (6): Matilda and Millicent
International (7): Marisol and Mignon
Unisex (2): Madigan and Montana

I clicked on Millicent.  It gave me a page with assorted info and lists of related names.  I clicked on Cordelia and this page appeared with 3 info boxes

http://nameberry.com/name/15942/CordeliaBox #1 has the usual origin, meaning and variations.  What makes it Nameberry are the other two boxes.

 

Box #2 gives you options with Related Names.  You can explore the list called “Old-Lady Cool Names” or “Classic Girl Names that Aren’t Boring” among others. 
 

Box #3 charts the popularity of the name since 1880 – no need to check the Social Security Administration’s Popular Names website.

You can also go directly to Hot Lists: http://nameberry.com/hotlists and take it from there.  No need to ask for a particular style, you can just hop around. Sample Lists:
