What is the meaning of the name Gwynda ?

The baby name Gwynda is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈɡwɪn.də/ (GWIN-də or GWIN-dah).

Gwynda is Welsh in Origin.

Gwynda is a Welsh-influenced feminine name formed from the elements gwen/gwyn ("fair, blessed, white") and da ("good"), yielding the sense "fair and good" or "blessed and good." Most sources treat it as an altered spelling of Gwenda, a modern coinage built on those same Welsh roots, with the y inserted to echo Welsh orthography seen in Gwyn and Gwyneira.

Use of the spelling Gwynda is sparse: the better-known Gwenda rose modestly in Britain in the late nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries amid Celtic-revival tastes, while Gwynda surfaces only occasionally in records and modern baby lists. It remains rare across Wales, the UK, and North America. Related forms include Gwenda, Gwen, Gwynna, and Gwyneth; longer relatives with the gwen element are Gwendolen/Gwendolyn. Nicknames: Gwen, Wyn, Winnie.
