Glanda is an uncommon feminine name that may have multiple origins. It could be a variant of Glenda, which derives from the Welsh elements "glan" (clean, holy) and "da" (good). Alternatively, it might be related to words for "land" or "earth" in various European languages. The name has a strong yet feminine quality with a pleasing rhythm when spoken.
