Guendalina is an Italian feminine given name, derived from the German name 'Wandalana', which means 'gentle ruler'. It is composed of two elements: 'wandan', meaning 'ruler' or 'leader', and '-lin', a diminutive suffix. The name was brought to Italy by the Lombards, who ruled much of the peninsula in the early Middle Ages. Guendalina has not been particularly common throughout history but remains a unique and elegant choice for parents seeking an uncommon name with a rich historical background.
"Guendalina was a popular baby girl's name in 1964 with five newborns sharing it that year."
