I have an Aunt
Freda and (had) a Great-Aunt
Freda. I grew up with the name so I'm biased. But I do love it. It always sounded like "freedom" to my young ears. I'm thrilled you are considering it. The world needs more Fredas. :-)
I toyed with the idea of using it myself one day. I wasn't sure if I would use
Freda as is, or as a nn for something else like
Frederica / Fredericka or
Elfreda (a quirky favorite of mine) or even Freedom. In the end I decided that
Freda was fine on its own.
Freda Margaret was my faovrite combination. Have you thought of mns?
