Y names

I have come across some names that begin with Y. Yasmine is a form of "Jasmine". In the Middle East it can be "Yasmina". I am not sure which one I like better. I came across a girl named "Yesenia".


What do you think of "Yolanda"? Is that too outlandish?

Yolanda's odd.

I ran across a Mexican girl named Yessica and thought it was a very pretty form of Jessica. No clue how legit it is, but pretty.

Yolanda is pretty common here. But I don't like it at all.
Yentl is a Y name as well. Don't like that one either =P

My brother's friend's mum is called Yolanda but she's known to everyone as Yolly.
She is absolutely mad (in a good way) and I think Yolly suits her. I couldn't see it being used on anyone else though.
