It sounds like Glenda in baby talk. I lovelovelove Gwen, and I like Gwendolen, so I feel I should like Gwenda, but I really don't. I wouldn't call Gwenda too much of a mouthful, but I do find it awkward. It's heavier than Gwen and less musical than Gwendolen.

People will call her whatever you (and later she) tell them to call her, but Gwen-anything would be a risky choice if you dislike Gwen. I know if I were a Gwenda, I'd drop that -da as soon as I was out of my mother's hearing.
