Re: Imelda
in reply to a message by Canielle
As someone of Filipino descent, I would definitely not use Imelda. Definitely too reminiscent of a particular lady who had many shoes and considering the political situation with that family right now in the Philippines, it's honestly not a good idea.
I'd even prefer Irmhild or Irmina if I wanted a similar sound and meaning to Imelda. Otherwise, Imogen / Imogene and Immaculada (and its cognates) would be lovely names to get to Immie / Immy.
