        Choctaw, Irish
      • Meaning:

        "leaping water, lady of abundance"

        "blessed peacemaking"
      • Description:

        One of the few remaining unrestored vintage gems, with a choice of two winning nicknames--the girlish Winnie and the tomboyish Freddie. Winifred, the name of a legendary Welsh saint, was a Top 200 name into the mid-1920's.
