Zelda: GP or good choice?

princessjenney · April 2014

DH and I both like the name Zelda but he puts it in the GP zone for sure whereas I feel like it could be a viable option. What do you all think?

GP only, sorry

I'd keep it GP. What about Zara? Zara is really pretty.

There's a Zelda at work, she's sort of a badass. I wouldn't use it but I don't think it's GP only.

*shudder* NMS at all.

I'm torn. I wouldn't use it... but I don't think it's awful if someone else does!

It would be a GP for me personally, but I have an unusual LN, so the two paired together is too much.

I think it's lovely with a more simple LN.

I know a little Zelda.

It's on my long list (my husband says no way!). I would love to meet a little Zelda in real life.

It's not a bad name, it just always sounds like a character to me instead of a person.

H likes it and would use it because of Zelda Fitzgerald but I am not a big enough fan of the name itself to use it.

If you like it I say use it!

DaisyZH · April 2014

I like it, I think it's a great name.

JMU_Bride09 · April 2014

I like it too. I would find it a tad silly to use if you're both huge video game people, but if not, I think it would be fine.

pipeTsquared · April 2014

Actually from reading it, I think it has grown on me

princessjenney · April 2014

Thanks for all the honest feedback! I'm keeping it on the list but not a frontrunner. I really do like it, but I can almost picture my MIL rolling her eyes lol

This would be in my head every time I saw the kid.

Sorry but honest opinion, terrible! But you don't need to care what I think!

I kind of like it. My two strongest associations with the name are Zelda the video game (agreed with above posters: still very popular franchise) and Zelda the character from Ethan Frome (not my favorite character ever). I think it would make a cool middle name.
