Help[Opinions] Re: Matilda, Maude or Maud?
in reply to a message by Felie
There's no real difference between Maud and Maude. It's just a spelling variation, like Sara and Sarah. Maud and Maude are pronounced the same. I'd guess Maud is older, because this site says that Maude is a variation of Maud, and not the other way around.
I prefer Maud, that spelling, to Matilda. Both Maud and Matilda are ugly, but Maud is charming-ugly and Matilda is just ugly and Maud is not clunky as Matilda is.

Hi !!!
I agree with you...
It is strange..
But in my mind is Matilda the most dated of all.
It has a very "1800s snobbish spinster" sound to me.
I dislike Maude because of final e that in this case seems too frilly.
Maud instead is youthful and charming imo...
This name is short and fresh with a lovely Medieval and aristocratic vibe.
