[Opinions] Hilma
I'm really loving this name today, because I remembered how much I love the artist Hilma af Klint. She was a fascinating person!Hilma seems warm and cozy to me; it has a homey familiarity because it's like a mashup of Wilma and Hilda, but then it also has these great associations of spiritualism, the occult, and creativity because of the artist. In that way it reminds me of Ouida - they are both sort of dorky, but they have some drama to them.What do you think of Hilma? Combos? Siblings? I like Hilma & Eunie together quite a bit.

I love Hilma af Klint.I can't quite like her name. It disappears into the muck and I suffocate. I'm not quiiiiite retro enough for it. I almost like it! But the "ilm" neutralizes me in a weird way, and the "H" and the "A" fan me towards that neutralization... whatever I don't like it very much. It's not comfortable and homey like it could be.Hilma... I like Wordsmith's Hilma Eustacia.Eunie is good yeah.Hilma Afrodite

I prefer both Hilda and Wilma and also Ilma. There is something about Hilma I don't really like.
