I love the name Zelda, I think its beautiful and unique. When people find out what we're naming her they have split reactions. In all honesty its our decision and I hope she loves it as much as we do." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jun 03, 2008: "Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald, born in 1900, was the wife from 1920 of F. Scott Fitzgerald, and the name was popular in the 1920s on the Fitzgerald's account - but then in 1930 Zelda became seriously ill with schizophrenia, and her name has since become a term for anyone else suffering from that illness, in the same way 'Greta Garbo' is now a term for a loner following the actress herself saying "I Want To Be Alone" in the 1932 film Anna Karenina and then Miss Garbo's being alone for the rest of her life until she died in 1990 aged 84. The Fitzgeralds, though, had shorter lives than Miss Garbo did: in 1940 F. Scott Fitzgerald died of a heart attack brought on by his alcoholism (he was aged 44), and in 1947 Zelda died in a fire at the mental home where she spent her own last years."
