This name is a good name! My sister is named Gudrun but we pronounce it "GOOD rin" and her nickname is Goodie :)))))
She never gets made fun of or anything, overall super lit. Name your child this to have a good child.

I am A South African of colour. My name happens to be Gudrun. To note I have not heard of any coloured person with this name. When I introduce myself to people, they look at me with disbelief. I always get asked if Gudrun is my real name. I get told on many occasions that it's a beautiful name. I always get asked to pronounce my name.
I have asked my mom why she named me Gudrun as it not a common South African name.
There is story behind my name. I am A twin. On the day we were born, my sister, Diane who was two at that time, died suddenly while my mom gave birth to my sister and I. Because my mom was in a state of shock, the nurses cared for us in hospital, and happened to be a German and a Jew. They decided to name us. My twin was named Sharon and I Gudrun.
I think Gudrun is a beautiful name and it makes me feel unique and special.

I must confess that Gudrun has to be one of the most unflattering sounding and appearing names that I have ever come across. The sound of Gudrun is absolutely hideous and the look of it appears much more masculine even though Gudrun would be a terrible name for either gender. There isn't a single drop of beauty or charm in this name.

Wow, a name that's harsher than Gertraud / Gertrude. I wondered if that were possible...

This was my grandmother's (amma's) name. She was Icelandic, and to my ears this is God's Writing or gud (God) run (runes or runa lettur).
