History and Origin
Zelda is a nickname for the feminine name Griselda, which may originally have meant "dark battle", and also the feminine form of the yiddish name Selig, meaning "blessed", "happy".
English: modern name of uncertain origin, possibly a short form of Griselda. It came to prominence in the 1920s as the name of the wife of the American writer F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940). Zelde, however, is a traditional Yiddish given name, derived from a Middle High German vocabulary word meaning ‘happiness, good fortune’ (cf. Selig).
