Glinda dances onto the scene like sunlight through stained glass—a name freshly minted by L. Frank Baum for his beloved Good Witch of the North, yet sparkling with echoes of the Old English root glint, “to shine.” It wraps its bearer in a warm cloak of magic and kindness, guiding her steps like una estrella brillante in a moonlit sky. Every time you whisper GLIN-duh, you summon a little fairy-tale glow, a promise of benevolence and quiet leadership. With its literary pedigree and a dash of Latin pasión—hija de la luz, “daughter of light”—Glinda feels both classic and vibrantly new. For parents who crave a name that’s part storybook enchantment, part guiding star, Glinda casts an irresistible spell of hope on life’s grand adventure.
