Pronounced Wele-mee-na, Queen of the Netherlands. Though she sought refuge in England in WW2, she still was consistant in encouraging the Dutch resistance.-- Tbird 7/23/2005
Tbird is quite correct, in the Netherlands we pronounce it as: Will-hell-MEEN-ah.-- Anonymous User 11/22/2005

Wilhelmina Slater is one of the main characters on the hit show Ugly Betty. She is played by Vanessa Williams, and is a conniving fashion editor willing to do anything to take over the magazine.-- Tears Of Blood 12/31/2007
This name isn't often used in Spanish-speaking countries, but it's pronounced Wih-lehl-mih-nah. (The 'h' is not pronounced in Spanish.) I like this name, but a nickname is Willa, Wila in Spanish, which is slang for "prostitute". :(-- BornOnRoshHashanah 4/19/2008
Very outdated and elderly name.-- Anonymous User 4/2/2009

Strong and elegant.-- vomiting 5/14/2009

This name is extremely hard to pronounce for me. Oddly enough I still like it.-- Chrila96 1/4/2011
This name is also used in Poland. I find it to be lovely. [noted -ed]-- bananarama 5/23/2011
My mind goes blank just looking at the name. Hard to decide on its pronunciation. Very odd, very weird, very unpleasant name. What are the shorter versions? "Wil", or "Mina"? Whatever else you make out of it is stupid sounding and ugly.-- MyFartsSmellGood 7/3/2011
Wilhelmina is so pretty. Nicknames Willa, Willow, Mina, Minka and Minnie.-- emilymaryjane 12/29/2011
Spanish speaking countries usually spell it as "GUILLERMINA" pronounced gee-yer-MI-na. It's very rare, it's masculine form it's more common. I'm from a spanish speaking country, take my word not BornOnRoshHashanah, don't know where in the world does Wila means that!-- Askris 1/18/2012
I think this name is strong and elegant and has plenty of cute nicknames.
I really do love this name but I'm not sure my love of the name would be shared by everyone else.-- Anonymous User 1/21/2012
