I'd go for Frida. To me it looks more familiar, probably because of Frida Kahlo and other famous Fridas.

With Freda, you might get some people pronouncing it Fred-a.

Do you mean Freida?

Of the two, Frida, but actually I prefer Frieda.

This. I would have spelt it Frieda

Frida over Freda but I prefer Frieda.

I have a name like this with a minority spelling, you’re setting your child up for a lifetime of misspellings and mispronunciations; perhaps Freya instead?

We dog-sat a beautiful lurcher gal called Frida so it will always be Friday for me. So graceful.
