HelpRe: More on Griselda.
in reply to a message by Allibeth
Well, I'm not one of the "select few" who feel about it as you do. lol.
I think the flow is fine. Not crazy about the initials.
Regardless of whether you use the full name or Zelda, her dad will still say/think it refers to Legend of Zelda. Which it does, to him, and how is that truth not "best"? The game character is a much nicer image than many people generally have of Griselda. Being inspired to use an ancient name by a video game is not any less cool than being inspired because it has a "fairy tale quality" to you. Is it?
Griselda isn't going to seem as ugly on a young child, at any rate - any "witchy" image people have of it, will only make it seem hipster-ironic to them, like it fits right in among girls named Olive, Matilda, Jocelyn, and Hazel.
My guess about the small spike is that it was Hispanic usage, inspired by something or someone in Latin American culture.
