Great nickname for Theodora. Like to the point I am now considering adding Theodora to my PNL and shortlisting it just to be able to use Theda.

I like it, but do slightly prefer it as a nickname for Theodora. It has an interesting sound (in a good way).

Theda Bronwen
Theda Frances
Theda June
Theda Juniper
Theda Margaret
Theda Mariam
Theda Marigold
Theda Rosalind
Theda Viviane
Theda Vivienne
Theda Winifred

Lots of good suggestions.

Thanks!

Edit: for bad punctuation. :(

Love it! Theda Bara was an amazing person.

I LOVE Theda as a nn for Theodora. It's so spunky and exotic ... yay :)

Theodora Penelope
Theodora Jane
Theodora Elise
Theodora Helene
Theodora Virginia
Theodora Michaela
Theodora Genevieve
Theodora Serenity

(Actually, come to think of it, most of those would work with Theda as a full name, too. At least I think so!)

Ooo!

Yea, I actually started thinking it might be better as a nn, although it can stand on it's own feet just fine.

I've had Theodora on my PNL for ages, and the only thing that stopped me using it was that I couldn't find any mns.

But I really like Theodora Jane, Theodora Helene and Theodora Genevieve.

Thanks!

I knew one who was rather obnoxious. The other main association is the "vamp" 1920s actress Theda Bara. Overall, not so keen on it.
