Names of famous enchantresses?

The only ones I can think of are Circe, Morgan le Fay, and the unnamed Lady of the Lake...but I KNOW there have to be more, especially in world lit. Anybody's input would be welcome. Thanks.

Melusine, perhaps? BTW, I beleive the Lady of the Lake was named Nimue.

Aoife, stepmother of the Children of Lir. She turned them into swans.

The Lady of the Lake has been called Nimue and Vivien. Parthenope and Ligeia were 2 of the Sirens, and there's also Medea in Greek mythology. Click on the links to see their entries.
