[Opinions] Thelma
by

Thelma
has languished on the periphery of my name thoughts for years, but it's finally stolen the spotlight, and I'm really charmed by it. I'm a sucker for "-elm" in names (e.g.
Anselm
,
Zelma
,
Elmo
), and for me,
Thelma
evokes both a gum-smacking side-heroine in classic MGM films (perhaps inspired by
Thelma
Ritter) and a benevolent librarian/bibliophile, which amplifies its appeal. Am I alone in my admiration for this "hopelessly dated" name?
Here, of course, are some combos:
