This is debatable. There are two named female characters, Abby, one of the main characters, and Debra, a minor character who has a conversation with Meurice, a fairly minor character, and Abby and Debra never talk to each other.

There is another character, a landlady, who Abby talks to about renting a room (and also about the current occupant of the room), in a very brief scene, so should probably shouldn't count as named, as she is a very minor character. Abby calls her Mrs Estevez, but she is "Landlady" in the credits.
