I like it. I have no idea what middle name I would put with it. My mom's teaching assistant has a sister named Gilda. They were born in Italy. :-) It certainly is a name that you don't often hear.

Eh, too dated sounding to me. Plus as you mentioned it makes me think of "gilded" and "guilds"

---

Gilda Mariel is the best combo choice imo

I guess because I work in healthcare, it make me think of Gilda's Club. (it's a support place for cancer patient's & thier families )

---

Before that though, Gilda reminded me of "gild the lily"

Gilda is a hoot. Just a hoot. I guess it's sort of dated, but its quirkiness exempts it from the usual effects of datedness, I think. It has such a spark of outrageous magic to it. Oh it delights me so. It's so... LOUD. And so unapologetic.

I very much like Gilda Halcyon. That is a really neat image. I also like Gilda Juliet because I like how the more retiring and gentle Juliet looks next to the electric Gilda.

---

Hmm if I were to use Gilda, what would I pair it with....maybe...

---

Gilda Zoe
Gilda Lise
Gilda Lucille
Gilda Phoebe
Gilda Cleo
Gilda Felicity
Gilda Penelope
Gilda Merab
Gilda Odette (oh this sounds like the stagename of a showgirl from the Moulin Rouge in the 30's)
Gilda Polly
Gilda Posy
Gilda Perchance-to-Dream ok now I'm channeling beethoven and Akua Topaz

I think it's dated, but I still like it. It's got spunk.

I think another dated name compliments Gilda:

Gilda Fay
Gilda Frances
Gilda Maureen
Gilda Elaine
Gilda Marian
Gilda Vivian
Gilda Ruth
