Love it. Would use “Willa” as nickname. “Mina” is okay as well.

Unpleasing rhythm. My friend's mother was Wilhelmina, nn Minnie; I suppose Wilhelmina needs a nn, but I don't think there is a crying need for a fem form of William, Wilhelm etc, and if there is, then Willa might do.

It's quite a mouthful. I picture a tough, stubborn person. It has lots of good nicknames though! Mina, Willa, Billie, Mimmi

I love it! I've been thinking about actually using it (although it is lower on the list). It's a nice combination of long, elegant, strong, a little dark, and mysterious, but still bright and energetic. I also like that it's not too obvious a feminisation.

I like the nickname Mina, but Wilhelmina itself is too solid and old-fashioned for me.

Beautiful. I used to mistake it as Wilhelmia, but I think Wilhelmina is a really gorgeous name. I like how frilly it is.
