Yulonda Origin and Meaning

The name Yulonda is a girl's name.

Yulonda appears to be a variant spelling of Yolanda, which has Spanish origins derived from the medieval French name Yolande. The name ultimately traces back to the Germanic elements 'yol' (jolly) and 'land' (land). This variant spelling with 'u' instead of 'o' emerged in the United States during the mid-20th century. Yulonda saw increased popularity from the 1960s through the 1980s. The name exemplifies the trend of phonetic spelling adaptations that became common in American naming practices during this period. While less common than Yolanda, Yulonda has maintained consistent usage across diverse communities in the United States. The name's rhythmic quality and melodic sound have contributed to its enduring appeal.
