Pronounced Vey-da not Vah-da

As in My Girl.

Bit too Darth, or do you like?

Far too Star Wars, I'm afraid. Darth was the first thing that came to mind for me.

Or there's Vega (Vey-gah)

I personally thought of My girl, no darth in my mind. Erm i don't really like it, but each to their own Smile

Lord Vader

Nope.

Vada

My neighbours dog is called Vadar. I dont like it tbh.

Sultenfuss :)

I quite like it, it's pretty.

People are going to think Vah-Dah and when you correct them they will think Darth.

What about Vala? (Vah-lah). Was on my list ontil DSS2 (age 21) said it put him in mind of the home planet of a Superman baddie or something. I had to conceed he had a point... But it's still less glaringly obvious than the draw back with Vada.

Definitely Darth, I'm afraid, especially with that pronunciation.

I would assume you were a big My Girl fan tbh. But when you say it I would htink most people would immediately preface it with Darth in their head.
