I think
Ethelinda seems a little more "Old English" than something I'd expect to be used in the 19th century. Considering the popularity of
Ethel and
Linda at that time, though, I don't think
Ethelinda would be
that improbable. As a name, I think it's lovely- one of my more eccentric favourites.
I'd use
Ettie as a nn. The others, except maybe
Linda, seem a bit forced.
