Is there a comprehensive list which we can pick names from? I’m looking for all traditional names, not names that are modern creations or not Jewish originally.

          Considering your criteria, I'm assuming you would appreciate this seffer: שמות בארץ



          It's everything Reb Chaim Kanievsky has to say about names, which to use and which not to use.



          As found there, even according to Rabbi Kanievsky, it's fine to use names that weren't traditionally Jewish if there was a gadol who had that name already or if someone in a medrash had that name.



          In fact he writes there that he thinks he remembers a Medrash Teiman that listed someone with the name Chaim.
          (Yes I was looking to see what he had to say about the nontraditional name Chaim. What can I say. I'm that guy.)

          • Re. untraditionally Jewish names... His opinion (if you’re citing correctly, I haven’t read the book) is most probably based on the R”I (Tos. Shab. 12b s.v. שבנא) who opines that even a name once held by a wicked person can be given if there were other [righteous] people bearing the same name. (Others follow suit but I think R”I is the basis for it.)

                    Fünf verschiedene schottische Single-Malt-Whiskys Als Single-Malt-Whisky oder kürzer Single Malt werden Whiskys bezeichnet, die zwei besondere Bedingungen erfüllen: Sie stammen zum ersten aus einer einzigen Brennerei, sind also kein Verschnitt aus mehreren Whiskysorten (daher Single , deutsch: einzeln). Zum zweiten wird als Getreide ausschließlich gemälzte Gerste verwendet (deswegen Malt , deutsch: Malz). Der Zusatz Single Malt wird als Prädikat verstanden, die so ausgezeichneten Whiskys sind in aller Regel besonders hochwertig. Hinzu kommt ihre besonders lange Lagerung, die Reifungszeit währt oft ein Jahrzehnt und länger.
