Manda

Manda is a short, phonetically expressive, and in Slovakia unusual girl's name. In various linguistic traditions, it originated as a short form of the names Amanda or Magdalena, which is why it lacks a single universally accepted etymological explanation. It comes across as simple and intimate, though locally it might sound more like a pet name than an official name form.
