Vilhelmina is a feminine name of Germanic origin, representing the female form of Wilhelm (William). The name combines the Germanic elements 'wil' meaning 'will' or 'desire' and 'helm' meaning 'helmet' or 'protection,' creating a meaning along the lines of 'determined protector.' This elaborate feminine variant has been particularly used in Scandinavian countries, especially Sweden, where it gained prominence through Queen Vilhelmina of the Netherlands. The name also appears in a slightly different form as Wilhelmina in Dutch and German traditions. While never extremely common in English-speaking countries, Vilhelmina appeals to parents drawn to its distinctive sound, royal connections, and historic European flair. The name offers several natural nicknames, including Vilma, Mina, or Helmi.
