[Opinions] Kelda
Kelda is probably one of my favorite girl names; I can’t resist the uniqueness. I’ve never heard of anyone named Kelda, and I love the sound. It does remind me of Zelda (a game character from Legends of Zelda), since they do rhyme; I don’t think that’s a dealbreaker or anything. If I had to use a middle name, I’d go with Kelda Faye, Kelda Gracie, Kelda Jasmine, or Kelda Janet.

Yeah, it's neat. The vibe is like Helga / Golda imo (I love these types of names), except it's more approachable like Kelly, Kellan, Kelsie, Zelda. It reminds me a bit of Kendra, Linda, Brenda in a way too? I like the meaning.I think it's sweet with Faye and Jasmine. It seems more no-nonsense with Janet. And I don't really like Gracie.

I like Kelda Grace and Kelda Janet.Kelda isn’t really my taste, though. I think it sounds kind of ancient and witchy.

I so agree about Kelda. It's strong and slightly mysterious, as if it belongs to some maiden in a folktale. I put it in the same quirky category as Everild, Rosamel, Florimel, and Madelief. Kelda Faye is my favorite from your list. If I may: Kelda Glynis, Kelda Rowan, Kelda Mor, Kelda Zuri, Kelda Marion, Kelda Beatrix, or Kelda Noor / Nur? :0)

I love Kelda, it’s been on my PNL for a while. I have met one in real life. Kelda was a neighbour I used to babysit for and at a guess now she would be in her late 50s.

It reminds me too much of horses. Idk why, possibly because of kelpies.The sound is a bit awkward to me. Zelda, while not a favorite, flows better.

I really like it, now that you mention it. Not as a favorite, but it's got a lot going for it!
I hate Zelda ... but I think Kelda benefits from the familiarity of Zelda, while having a totally different vibe in my mind. I could imagine Kelda becoming a moderately popular name, in some distant future - if it got some good exposure. Wouldn't that be cool? I think so. It's cooler than Zelda by a couple orders of magnitude imo
I like your combo Kelda Jasmine
I think it'd work with stronger middle names too, Kelda Victoria, Kelda Ruth, Kelda Madeline
