That's a terrible spelling. It doesn't look like it spells Matilda at all. It looks more like Matey Ida.

Yea I agree, don't give her a crazy spelling. My name is "Debie" and anytime I have to give my name I have to say "Debie, with ONE B". It's a hassle, people are always spelling it wrong even my own family at times. And forget spell check on computers or phones...they always change it to "Debbie". Lol

I definitely agree with everyone. Name is good, spelling will make that name mispronounced her while life which can get frustrating. My name is only 5 letters and as easy as it is since it was not a normal name i always had to spell it and say it which got frustrating. When i was a kid i would intentionally spell it differently on homework because i hated how it was spelled.

Name is fine,  spelling is not.  Her name will always be pronounced & spelled wrong. Not cool to set her up for aggravation :/

I think it's a beautiful name! I actually considered it when I was picking out names. I do agree though with the spelling. It does suck when people always spell my name wrong or tell me it's not the right way to spell it. But then again there isn't really a right way to spell a name ya know?

Agreed with the last two comments. Without you specifying I never would have assumed that was Matilda and your child will have to go the rest of her life with people constantly saying and spelling her name wronf
