I really love Scottish names and my grandmother was born in scotland so it hold special importance to me.
I like alot of male scottish names but i dont seem to have many female names at all.

I only really have:
Eleanor "Nell" - i know its not scottish but it sounds it to me
Caoimhe
Iona
Ishbel (not 100% on pron.)
Isobel - my grandmothers little sister who died

Please suggest some

I love Scottish names as well, obviously. My favorite being--duh--Isla. :)

I like all of those you listed (although I never really thought of Eleanor being Scottish before), and I also love:
Elspeth - my grandmother was Elsie
Catriona
Ailsa
Fenella / Finola (or the original versions - some names I like Anglicized and some I do not)
Jamesina
Greer
Fiona
Lorna
Mairead / Maisie
Morna / Maura / Moira

There are probably more, but that's all I can think of right now. :b

Some of my favourite Scottish names are Màiri, Lileas, Mòrag, Cairistìona, Davina (not Gaelic in origin, but it's a popular name in Scotland, or so I've heard), Lorna (see Davina) and Flòrag.
