[name_m]Hi[/name_m] everyone,
I’m curious to know others’ opinions on the name [name_f]Onda[/name_f] (sounds like Honda)? It’s the stage name of one member of a K-POP girl group I’m a fan of. What are some names that you think would match it in style?
Thank you! 
If you live in an area with a fair amount of Spanish speakers, you should know two things if you’re planning to use it as a baby name.
[name_f]Onda[/name_f] literally means wave or ripple (as in an ocean wave)
Qué onda? is a really common phrase used in Mexico that basically means “what’s up?”
So, not really a negative thing but something to be aware of.
I like [name_f]Onda[/name_f]! It has kind of a retro sound because it reminds me of [name_f]Wanda[/name_f]/[name_f]Rhonda[/name_f], but the O- beginning makes it sound cool and modern. I love the suggestion of [name_f]Ondine[/name_f]! Its sound also reminds me of [name_f]Oona[/name_f] and [name_f]Honora[/name_f]. I wouldn’t have thought of Honda if you hadn’t mention it.
Thank you for your opinions and suggestions! It’s not a name I would use on a real-life child, but it’s nice to have the cultural context.
