Gwenda is a female first name.
Recently, the name Gwenda has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one girl in 100,000 has been named Gwenda. That means that a girl named Gwenda is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Gwenda.
Is the name Gwenda a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Chosen by 109 parents, the name was given most frequently in 1952 – at that time, it ranked #833. It thus experienced its last peak in a world without internet and cell phones, even before the first personal computer was built. (Do you remember? Those were those big boxes that couldn't even begin to do what a simple robot vacuum cleaner can do today). Since Gwenda is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always come up with the idea of giving their child this unusual name. So, if your name is Gwenda, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, you stand out with your name these days!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Gwenda was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

More precisely, the first name Gwenda is registered in 18 states, among which are Alabama, Arkansas, California, Florida or Georgia. In proportion to the female population, most women and girls with the first name Gwenda live in Arkansas, and even there the name is rather special – only one in 35,536 would turn around if you called the name Gwenda across Arkansas.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter G is quite rare as a first letter for girls' names: only 2.1% of all common girls' names in the US begin with a G. The most common first letters for girls' names are A and S, while U and X are the least common first letters of girls' names.
With six letters, the name Gwenda is of average length. In fact, 28% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly six letters. 24% of all first names are shorter, while 48% have seven letters or more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
This means that if 2.1% of all girls' names begin with a G, this initial letter is less common than the other letters on average. Nevertheless, there are of course some names that begin with a G and are extremely popular, for example Grace, currently the most common girls' name with G.
If your name is Gwenda and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
