Kriemhild
in reply to a message by Telfalathiel
this name confounds me. How is it said? I feel like I would like it if I could just figure out how to say it!
My Cabbage Patch doll was named Brunhilda Annabelle. Like officially, on the paperwork. True story. I guess it made me partial to the name, because I do quite like Brunhild. Not for myself, but on someone else's child, I would love to meet a Brunhild.

I believe it is KREEM-hildt, the dt is usually just t here because people in my area of the U.S. seem to have a hard time with it.
Hmm
This makes things interesting. Firstly, I am glad it's not "crime-hildt". I was afraid that's what it was, and am releived that's not so.
See, I like the sound of "kreem-hildt", but it also seems a little "graphic" to me and reminds me of "cream hill" - which is also pretty, but.... I obviously spend way too much time around foul-minded men, if you know what I mean. However I think that shortening the "ee" part to "Krim-hildt" is also feasible and I find that extremely awesome. Luckily, the German version of this name is Krimhilde and I think that is rockin'. Much more so than Brunhild.
Added to name list! Thanks, Telfalathiel!
