What sort of girl is Matilda?

Love these threads as everyone always has such different ideas. I personally love Matilda (despite it being very common now) because of its meaning- mighty in battle. I think of a strong willed, brave and intelligent child. I guess that might come from the book though!

Your daughter would be who ever you helped her to be. You want a child who is creative do creative activities. One that's a book worm read to them. A name is in the long run of it just letters. Meanings of names change depending on each child.

I agree with you, Fullof.
