I assume you mean a D3300.
There are many wonderful lenses out there that will work with your camera. You need to figure out what focal length or focal length range you need. You also need to put down a budget. It's easy to pick out a $6000 lens, much harder to justify paying that much.

My most useful lens is the Nikon 18-140mm because it handles 90% of my shooting needs, image quality is good enough for my use, and is compact for a wide range zoom. My second most useful lens is a Tokina 100mm f/2.8 macro for product shooting as it is very sharp and has very little distortion.

For what purpose?

You need to confine your search for Nikkor AF-S, AF-P lenses which have built-in auto focus motors.

Then you need to decide what subjects you want to shoot.

Landscapes and architecture? 10-24 mm
Most standard subjects? 24-70 mm
Sports and action? 70-200 mm, 300 mm or 400 mm
Portraiture? 50 mm or 85 mm
Closeups? One of the fine Nikkor AF-S macro lenses, correctly named micro

Here are two links for you to visit

One lists all the current Nikkor lenses and the other shows what those lenses "see".

There are third party lenses made by Tokina, Sigma, and Tamron which have built-in-in autofocus motors and then there are some very new manual focus lenses coming out of Korea and China which has everyone talking.

D3300? If you know exactly what you're doing, the kit lens is good enough for almost everything you will encounter out there. If not, you buy (or will be teased to), every lens available out there.

Stick with the 18-55mm until you can answer this for yourself.

IF you have the kit zoom lens that usually accompanies that great camera (I suspect you mean the D3300, yes or YES?) you really, honestly, truthfully don't need another lens until YOU learn enough to answer the question yourself based on your own particular needs. The reason is simple, that kit zoom lens has all the versatility you need; it gives you focal range variety and covers the possible prime lenses' focal range that you may possibly be interested sometime in the future. Don't be another wasteful lens and gadget collector! Get only what you can and WILL use. It's only going to become useless heavy baggage to carry around needlessly.

Let me give you something to consider. Photographers gain experience through time dedicated to solving lighting problems and difficult angles of view they learn to use shadows and light, learn about designs and colors in composition… With the gear they own, which is often limited and dependent upon what the kind of photography they specialize in. So, develop your creativity and become resourceful with what you have (even if all you have is that first kit zoom lens, which is a really nifty lens to begin with, and it's a great walkabout lens, too). It will assuredly, certainly, definitely, positively make you a better photographer.
