It's the -ld- sound...right?
Hmm. I think I'm too old. The ld sound is okay to my ears on boys (and now I'm on the spot I can't think of an example), but not ready for reuse on girls?
Gilda sound like Gilded too, which too me is a bit negative.
On the other hand, I like it rather better than -say-
Fraser, and if I met a
Gilda IRL, I'd probably be pleased.
Gilda Jean /
Jeanne is the only thing coming into my head.
