Batgirl II: The Huntress took over the role of Batgirl for a time but handed the mantle on to Cassandra Cain. more info

Batgirl III: The daughter of assassin David Cain, Cassandra spent years being molded into the perfect assassin. Denied vocal stimuli, she was trained to communicate with violence. But Cain was unsuccessful in supplanting her conscience, and she eventually escaped, seeking asylum in Gotham. Since then, she has rapidly acquired language skills and made a few very deadly enemies, including Lady Shiva Wu-San, perhaps the greatest martial artist alive. Batgirl aids Batman and has been taken under the wing of the original Batgirl Barbara Gordon who now goes under the name of Oracle.
