Although I, personally, wouldn't use it, I think Walburga is a pretty cool name. It's unique, it's a good length, and it has a strong meaning. And it does not sound like “wall burger” to me.
Don't know how I feel about the way "Walburga" sounds, but I love love LOVE the meaning — "power of the fortress"! It sounds so cool! Imagine having a name that means "power of the fortress" — I would be so jealous!

It's so beautiful and very elegant. I don't care if this name is ugly and says "wall burger", it makes it so ridiculous in my opinion but it's very pretty. Just my opinion.
I can’t get past “burger”. Wall burger.
The Walburga Black association doesn’t bother me, though.
"Wall burger".
Name of the day August 9, 2020. I think this is an ugly name. I prefer other German names like Adelaide, Annelies, and Sabine.
Sounds like 'Wahlburger' in a much enhanced Bostonian accent.
Variant is Walborg (Swedish).
Maria Anna Walburga Ignatia Mozart (30 July 1751 – 29 October 1829), called Marianne and nicknamed "Nannerl", was a musician, the older sister of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and daughter of Leopold and Anna Maria Mozart.
This was one of the middle names of Habsburg queen Maria Theresa.
In my book of names, the book says that this name, whilst being the name of an English saint is also perceived to have witchcraft associations due to her saint day (May 1st) in Germany. I can't remember exactly, but I think it fell on the same day as an old pre-Christian worship/ceremony day, and these pre-Christian religions in Europe were denoted as the worship (and practice) of witchcraft, hence representing evil, by Christians.
I think this was the name of Sirius Black's mother in the Harry Potter books.
Yeah, it was. Her husband was named Orion.
