Names with "spunk"

I am looking for a girl name that seems to have "spunk"- something different, not trendy, but seems to be the name of someone mischevious and outgoing. So far I have Ruby and Scarlett, does anyone have any other ideas?

I'm prego with a boy, but if it was a girl we were going to name her Caitie Scarlett. (I watched Gone with the Wind once and Scarlett's father called her Katie Scarlett...I just like the spelling of Caitie). I know that Caitie is common, but the spelling is different. Good luck.

Sounds like you're just looking for a first name, so I'll leave my nose out of your middle name business here.

For the sort of short/sweet retrospunky vibe you've got going with Ruby, maybe try:

Dinah
Mae
Rosa
Faye
Vera
Lola
Cora

Hmm.. those all end in "-ah" with the exception of Mae and Faye. Here are a few others that don't, in case you hate names that end with that sound:

Eve
Lotte
Lucy
Violet
Maxine
Cleo
Daisy

And now for that dramatic Scarlett flair:

Ellery
Aislinn
Layla
Lorna
Beatrix
Victoria

Good luck!

Names that strike me as Spunky include

Josie
Layla
Lola
Samantha (Sammy)
Julie
Nichole (Nikki)
Corinne (Cory)
Kacy
Adrianna
Kim

Some of them sound spunky, others are spunky to me because I associate the name someone who is spunky.
Good Luck

For some reason I really like the name Phillipa nn Pippa! It is used over in England but I think that it is a really cool name and is not common here in the States. The one name that I heard that I thought was so cute was Phillipa Violet. So cute and spunky!!!
