HelpRe: Danielle and Wanda
in reply to a message by Maris
I like Daniel very much for a boy, but Danielle for a girl doesn't appeal to me at all. Not sure why - I'm fine with both Michael and Michele. I know a lovely Danielle, nn Dani, so it isn't a bad association at all.
Wanda? I've only ever heard it pronounced Vanda, not Wanda. That was on the child of neighbours when I was a kid: the father was Polish and the mother was Scottish, so both children had a Polish ln. The boy was Roderick Polishname to give him a link to his mother, and the girl was Wanda Polishname because her parents reasoned that she'd probably get married and change her ln! Very strange. Nice kids, though; we used to play cricket in the garden.
