User Comments about the name Wilhelmina
Comment left May 25, 2008: "Even with 'Ugly Betty' now popular on both sides of the Atlantic, I don't think a name like Wilhelmina is likely to shoot up the U.S. charts anytime soon, partly because the character Wilhelmina is one of the evil characters in the show, a right nasty piece of work (although on a positive note the actress playing her, Vanessa Williams, crowned the first Miss Black America in 1982, is also a talented singer - remember when in 1992 she sang 'Save The Best For Last' and that was a WONDERFUL song). I don't think it's right, though, a poor child being named after ANY villain or villainess whether he or she is a murderer or murderess, tempter or temptress, conman or conwoman, or whatever, and whether he or she is real or fictional and also what era that person happens to be from."

Comment left Apr 22, 2007: "I think the sound of the name is very pretty, but the spelling of it makes it look uglier than it is, plus it's quite a lot for a young girl to learn how to spell! I think if it were spelled "Willamina," it would look nicer, but I hate untraditional spellings of names. There are a few nice nicknames, though, like Willa and Mina." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 31, 2007: "The name itself is a bit of a mouthful, but the contraction is Mina, and that is a lovely name... definately my third favourite name after Lacey and Anna" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 01, 2007: "My moms middle is Wilhelmina. A while ago she hated the guts out of it. at a specific time when a teacher asked her what the W stood for, she replied "wilma'. It is still on a report. But now ahe grew older and she makes jokes about it. But no advise to anyone to name her child 'Wilhelmina'." (Report as inappropriate)
