DH and I have 'used up' all the names of the imahot for our daughters except Rivka. I've intentionally not used it until now because it's very similar to my MIL's name (Rima / Riva. Apparently that's what they changed it to in Russia) and I really despise my MIL... It's also possible to use it as a second name. Any ideas?
We're living in Israel, and chabad. DH doesn't like names of animals (Ayelet etc) or modern or unusual names. Any ideas?

Have you used the Chabad Rebbetzins or other Chabad-related names yet?
Chaya Mushka
Shterna Sarah/Sterna
Chana
Devorah Leah
Nechama Dina
Menucha Rochel
Zelda Rochel
Shaina
Or if you're looking for more Torah names:
Dina
Yocheved
Miriam
Tziporah
Tirtza, Noa (some of the Bnos Tzelafchad)

There are other names other than the Imahot and modern Israeli names.
If you want biblical names:
Esther
Devorah (animal, bee)
Hadassa
Miriam
Chava
Shulamit
Michal
Avital
Avigail
Tamar
Osnat
Dina
Yael (animal, deer)
Yiska
There really is no shortage. Why do you need to use all the 4 imahot, if you don't like the name Rivka, don't use it.

We've used 3 of the 'chabad' names, except Chaya Mushka (I don't want my daughter to be known in school as Chaya Mushka #12! Really love the Tanach names posted, or perhaps a mix of one of the chabad Rabbaniyot's names... many thanks!

Some other biblical names I don't think were mentioned:
Elisheva, Batsheva, Adina, Yiska, Naomi, Rus, Tzila, Tzivia, Yehudis, Basya, Penina
Some Hebrew but not biblical: Shoshana, Chaya, Meira, Bracha - edited to add Malka, Gila, Rina, Ahuva, Ruchama, Tzofia, Emuna, Tova, Nesya, Shira, Aviva, Aliza
and edited to add Yiddish: Liba, Shaina, Roiza, Tzirel, Henna, Mindel, Elka, Breindel, Bluma, Faiga
Also editing to add that all of the above are pretty accepted in Chareidi society, though I can't speak specifically for Chabad.
