HelpHelga (more)
in reply to a message by Music_Obsessed_Person
I don't like either of them to be honest. I could never ever use Donna. I've lived in Italy and it is the Italian word for 'woman'. It is a commonly used word so it would just be super weird should she go to Italy.
Even if she doesn't it is extremely dated, I dislike the nicknames Don and Donnie and it has a bit of an insubstantial, ditzy image. As a child I sometimes watched reruns of Beverly Hills 90210 with my older cousin and I remember a character named Donna who was this blond, Malibu type of girl and I first think of her. She was named after her dad Don if I remember correctly (I loved that show when I was 5 or 6, I guess because I could spend time with my cousin) which is kind of cute but still not a fan of the name.
Helga is really clumsy and odd but more substantial and stronger than Donna. I think it could possibly make a comeback, it is sort of similar in style to names such as Matilda and Elsa, very strong and no-nonsense.
