Don't like it as a feminine form of David that sounds unattractive but I prefer David as a boy name.

I would pronounce Da-VEE-duh.

Always have preferred Davina. Not super into the sound of Davida. Does kind of remind me of Aviva soundwise which I love

də-VEE-də, presumably. Really unpleasant - wooden and hulking, no spark to it, weighty, but without gravitas.

I like how gravid but glittery Davida is. I pronounce it "da-VEE-da."

I’m sorry, but I don’t care for this name. As for the pronunciation, I agree with the others; that’s how a Davida I know pronounces it.

I think it is pronounced dah-VEE-dah.

I prefer Davina.

da VEE da

I'd guess daVEEda, but I've never heard it used.

Maybe OK as a mn to honour a David? I love David, and my birth ln was Davies, so David is my son's first mn. I wouldn't use a fem form of it, even if I could pronounce it.
