Comments for the name Glenda

A famous bearer of this name is British actress Glenda Jackson.

Does anyone else think of Glenda, the Good Witch from the Wizard of Oz? :)

No her name is Glinda. Not Glenda, although I'm sure this is where he got his name. Of course there's always Galinda. Hehe.

It's true that in the Wizard of Oz it was Glinda, but 1) I can't find it here and 2) If you pronounce it the difference is very small. Sorry for my English:)

The only Glenda I've ever known was named after her father, Glen. I don't like this name much, because it reminds me of the famously awful movie about cross-dressing by the famously awful director Ed Wood called "Glen or Glenda?"

I like the meaning, but the way the name sounds isn't exactly pleasing to my ear.

I like this name, it is elegant. But for when you child is heavy.
