I'm surprised by how much I've come to like Yolanda, especially since it sounds like a conceited person, but I just do. I really like Yolande too.

Nice

8.5/10 -I like the medievalness of Yolanda. It feels at home in a fantasy novel set in the real word that blends different historical settings. To me a dated name is strongly associated with one time period, but Yolanda could be medieval, a 1920s flapper, or a 70s child. It is a very purple name. Even before I learned that it meant violet, I associated it with the color purple.

I don't like it much. First of all, the "Y" doesn't sound too pleasant, and second, the sounds isn't very attractive. Overall, I would use give it a 2/10.

I prefer Iolanthe as a less dated alternative

Yolonda’s Genius

That’s immediately what I think of. That was the first book I read in 5th Grade. Yolonda was kinda sucky was a person tbh.

The name itself is okay I guess. I prefer as a middle though like you.
