I hate Ida.
I think it's childish, has an ugly sound and it's whiney. that said, I'm in Sweden where Ida is a popular name in my generation and among kids. When I imagine an Ida in the US I see an elderly black woman. Maybe a stereotype? I dunno.
I prefer Iva. I had a co-worker at my previous job who had a daughter named Iva, and a son named Idris.
We’ve all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That’s who we really are.
