[Opinions] Re: Matilda or Helena?
Helena has two conflicting pronunciations (at least!) and therefore personalities. And where I live it has a third. So, no. I'd use Helen IRL without hesitation, but never Helena.Matilda can be Matty or Matts, Tilly or Tilda, or she could stay Matilda. I like options. Matilda survives the unofficial Australian national anthem because of its medieval energy, glamour and toughness; plus it was the name - not given by us - of the best dog we ever had. It's a winner!
