Small disclaimer: one of the questions so far could be interpreted in multiple ways, but I interpreted it in the most literal way. However, the answer I gave is the "expected" answer from a non-pedantic perspective as well, so I don't expect it to cause too much confusion.
Her name at birth was Valerie Jane Morris-Goodall, but she seems to have dropped the "Valerie" at some point, so currently, she doesn't have a first name with at least three different vowel letters, but in the past she did.

Free guess: Jane Goodall.
Jane Goodall is correct!
Hooray! Interestingly, in the version of Round #500 I would have hypothetically ran, she may have been who I picked for you.
