Wilhelmina

Wilhelmina is a feminine given name of German origin, derived from the elements 'will' meaning 'desire' or 'resolution', and 'helm' meaning 'protector' or 'helmet'.

The name has been popular in various European royal families, particularly in the Netherlands, where it was borne by several Dutch queens.

While the name Wilhelmina has a strong, almost warrior-like meaning, it has also acquired softer associations over time, and is often perceived as a elegant and regal name.

In recent years, Wilhelmina has seen a resurgence in popularity, perhaps due to its vintage charm and the trend towards reviving traditional names with historical significance.
