No Alternates Allowed! (girls)

There were way more boys' names with few/no variants than I thought! Maybe I'm just too cynical where alternate spellings are concerned.
But, looking through the girls' lists....maybe not. Apparently parents are more willing to "tweak" girls' names, because the girls' list from the top 500 was nowhere near as long as the boys'! So, here's the girls' names from the top 750 (or so) that have 0-1 spelling variants.
(and again, there are definitely some spellings choices I don't advocate, but they are in use.)
