[Opinions] Ilma

I don't know but I can't get this name out of my head. I think it's so sweet. It reminds me of names like Ella and Ida and I hope it might get back into style. What do you think? Could it make a comeback? Do you like Ilma? It seems to have some very nice meanings ranging from "air" to "water" in several languages. So I like the nature vibe I get from it.

Opinions?

Ilma

I don't see any reason why it couldn't become more popular. I suspect that in another decade or two we will get the -elma names like Elma, Selma and Thelma back, too.

I agree...if I have paid enough attention to birth announcements since the start of this year I think names like Dorothy and Millie/Mildred will come back very soon.

I like it. It reminds me of names like:
Inga
Ida
Isla
All of the above are popular where I live, so maybe Ilma will come into fashion.
