Re: Wanda
in reply to a message by A
Does she pronounce it Wanda or Vanda - a w or a v?
The only one I've ever known was the daughter of a Polish father and a Scottish mother. She got the Polish name, pronounced with a V, and her brother got a Scottish one: Roderick.
It reminds me of names I don't enjoy, like Wendy and Amanda. But I don't mind it at all, though I'd never use it because I've got no Polish connections. No idea what people in Poland think of it!

With a W. With a V is much better though.
