Your name of Hilda gives you independence and determination. Nothing intimidates you once you make up your mind. You prefer the simple life and do not mind making do at times. You are not sentimental nor idealistic. You are an active person, with an appreciation for outdoor activities, either on your own or with one or two close friends who share the same affinity for nature and the challenges it provides. You will not tolerate dominance by others because your freedom means too much to you. You recognize your difficulty in expressing emotional sentiments and compliments that mean so much to sensitive people. You express yourself in as few words as possible and often choose silence rather than idle chatter. You work best where you can combine physical labour with mental activity. You feel this separation from others and would give anything to be always lighthearted and friendly instead of serious and shy.
