I prefer the look of Wilhelmina, but Willemina is probably easier to live with outside of Western Europe. I don't really like the idea of Will on a girl, but I'm not fond of male nicknames on girls in general (I changed my name from Samantha to my middle name just to avoid Sam!) but Willa and Mina are always options as well.

---

I'd probably stick with something simple in the middle, like Willemina Ruby from your list.

I love Willemina. It's my favorite form/spelling of the name.

---

These are my favorites from your combos...

---

Willemina Catherine
Willemina Clare
Willemina Frances
Willemina Hazel
Willemina Pearl
Willemina Ruth

I really like the H in Wilhelmina; Willemina just doesn't look right to me.

---

I like:
Willemina Ruby
Willemina Mary
Willemina Margot
Willemina Alice
Willemina Clare
Willemina Laurel
Willemina Rachel

Between Mina and Lucy, I would assume someone who named their kid Willemina Lucy was a huge Dracula fan.

I prefer Wilhelmina, but Willemina is ok. It can come across as old, especially in some of your combos. I'm not saying they're bad, but Willemina Gertrude sounds like someone's great great grandma, not a baby.

Willemina Ruby sounds very good. Most of the other ones make the combo sound suitable for an older woman only.

Willemina / Wilhelmina is a bit of an old lady name to me, and when I hear them (mainly Wilhelmina) used these days, it's usually as a MN. Willemina does look a bit younger then Wilhelmina. If you'd use Willemina over here I'd take into account that your daughter will have to define there's no H in there a lot...

I really like Wilhelmina, but I'm not really feeling the Willemina spelling. Sound-wise, I like:

---

Willemina Agnes
Willemina Catherine
Wilhelmina Clare
Willemina Frances
Willemina Pearl

---

Bonus: It's a bit of a mouthful, but my favorite Wilhelmina combination if Wilhelmina Josephine (or Willemina Josephine in your case).

I absolutely adore Wilhelmina but I dislike the way Willemina looks. It seems... mm, infantile, perhaps? Like someone who wasn't sure how to spell it gave it a go. I like the nn Mina.

---

Overlooking spelling, of your combos I like:

---

Willemina Catherine
Willemina Hazel
Willemina Odette (she must be a ballerina. must!)
Willemina Pearl (a fun grandmother)
Willemina Rosalind
Willemina Ruby

---

I want to like Willemina Zelda as I have such a fondness for Zelda but I think it's the double -a I can't warm up to. But I'm trying.

It could grow on me. I like:

---

Willemina Fern
Willemina Hazel
Willemina Mary
Willemina Ruth**
