I actually kinda like the name, but it does make me think of Terrahawks.

No, they’ve specifically named this one after the game character.

On the upside, at least they didn't name a boy Zelda thinking that's the name of the green-clad main character. Small mercies.

Zelda is a really nice name.
If your back's against the wall, turn around and write on it.

At least it's an actual name and not e.g. a Pokemon Is it big again now or is this more of a nostalgia thing? :outoftouch:
I think if Game of Thrones had had its moment 30 years before I had kids instead of being a recent phenomenon, I definitely would've considered Arya as a baby name.

I know a poet called Zelda. She's an adult . I think her parents were hippies.

Article in my local paper today telling of a sad story about a seven-year-old who was kidnapped by her mother and later found living in unsuitable conditions. The child's name is Lousyana.

Omg, what a great resurrection of this thread. Lousyana!
I saw this the other day and felt so sorry for this bloke. But then he became an estate agent so not that sorry for him.
