I know a Yolanda who lives in Poland but I don't believe it's a Polish derived name.

Hmmm, many of the names do not appear to be Slavic in origin....perhaps Romanian???

I don't think there is a "Y" in the Polish alphabet, so Yolanda does not sound Polish (as Jim said).

Nancy, there is a 'y' in the Polish alphabet, I just don't think Yolanda is Polish. However, like I said I know a Yolanda who was born and lives there.
