Wanda

Wanda is a name of Polish origin. It was originally used by a group of ancient Polish tribes, known as The Wends. The meaning of Wanda is a ‘wanderer in life’. This name became a famous Polish name, as it was also inspired by the story of the Princess Wanda. She was the daughter of Krakus, who founded Krakow in Poland, and became Queen of the Poles. A wanderer is somebody who has no fixed address, but instead prefers to travel around, as they enjoy the 'wonder' of discovering new places and things. This type of person is known to go aimlessly around the world and usually travels around without any particular destination in mind. The name was brought into the English language with the release of Ouida's novel 'Wanda'. In more recent years, the name has increased in popularity due to Wanda Maximoff, who is a character in Marvel's 'Avengers'. She is known for being extremely powerful, with the ability to teleport and manipulate time.
