Meaning and history
Kelda is a feminine name of uncertain modern formation, most often associated with Scandinavia. It resembles Old Norse and modern Scandinavian words for a spring or well, such as Old Norse kelda, and is sometimes interpreted as “spring” or “fountain.” However, its history as a traditional personal name is limited, so broader claims should be treated cautiously. It is also known from British fantasy and television contexts. Reliable prominent real-life bearers are scarce.
