I know that Oda named a few of his female characters, like Tsuru, Tashigi and Kuina, after different kinds of birds, but I'm only aware of these three characters following that theme. Out of curiosity, are there more female characters who share their names with birds?

For the sake of completeness, for the male characters:

Note: this list only includes character names. It excludes characters/others that are directly related to birds (e.g. Monet's harpy).

Robin might be the most obvious one. It's also worth to mention that her autograph is a bird as well:
