Re: Wilhelmina? (willa-MEE-na)
in reply to a message by Clara
I adore Wilhelmina. My only fear is that people (here in the U.S) might think it's pronounced, "wil-hel-mina." But I still think it's worth the risk. What a gorgeous sound it has overall. And I agree that the nn Mina is particularly attractive. Think: Mina Harker in Dracula; Victorian chic. Other nns: Willa (as you've already listed), Billie, Minna, Minnie, Mimi. Loads of options. Finally, it fits in with your heritage. Go for it! Have you started to think about mns yet?
