I'm a four year PhD student.
Is it true that a female candidate is more likely to be interviewed because some schools limit their search (implicitly) to female candidates only?
Good news is yes. So, given your foreign first name, better to have a feminine english nickname on your CV.

Sydney, Lindsey, Alexis, or Dana?
Yes it is true. But mostly at the margin. If candidate A has a top 3, and candidate B has none, then candidate A obviously gets the interview regardless of gender. However, if neither candidate has a clear signal of quality, then the female candidate gets the interview (Based on years of doing searches).
