Inspired by the recent Thomasina thread, are there any feminisations that you like? I have a huge soft spot for Frederica and Benedicta.

Phanuelina is the worst I have seen.
I like Jacobina.

I knew of a Donaldina from the Western Isles. I was told adding 'ina' to male names was common in those parts? Can't think of other examples off top of my head though...

Scotland really is a leader for this! I remember years ago someone posted a list of feminisations from gravestones in Scotland and there were some great names there.
