In a programme I was watching last night there was a character called Vanda Chevenix who was played by an actress called Zena Walker. Vanda or Zena which do you prefer and would you use either?

Xena/Zena's one of my favourites and I'd definitely use it if there wasn't a specific issue related to it. Vanda is okay, but I feel like I'm putting on a German accent and saying Wanda.

Zena, when I like names what they remind me of heavily influences whether I like it or not. Vanda (with an 'a' like apple) sounds almost like Vandal. I still like it.

I prefer Wanda; same pronunciation as Vanda, more authentic appearance.
