It's so gorgeous, but I prefer Matilda better. 

I like it a lot more than Matilda.

I enjoy Miranda very much. It's shimmery and summery.

I prefer Matilda, but not by a large margin.

Miranda has been a favourite for a very long time. I know a Miranda, a medic in - I think - her 50s, who is never called anything else, but the idea of Miranda shortening to Randy is awful and I would only use it as a mn, just in case.

One of the finest dogs I've ever had was Matilda: known as Matt the Mutt, she was a rescue dog who had been ill-treated. It took her a year to relax and start believing that she actually was safe and loved. Then she blossomed! But as a human name, I far prefer Miranda.

Love Miranda, love the meaning, love that it is both strong and feminine, and not some psudo-man name, a name a girl deserves.
Matilda is nice, but like it a just a bit less, still feminine and kind of kick ass meaning but a point or two lower on the personal appeal scale.

Miranda is one of my favorite names, has been for ages. I could easily see myself naming a daughter Miranda. And while Matilda my be older, with medieval history (I love the middle ages), imo Miranda outstrips it in every sense.

I'm not big on Matilda or Miranda. I prefer Amanda.
