How to Pronounce Mirinda
Pronounced muh-RIN-duh /məˈrɪndə/Medium
Meaning: Mirinda is a spelling variant of Miranda, a name coined by Shakespeare for The Tempest from the Latin mirandus ('worthy of admiration, wonderful'). The shifted vowel keeps the meaning and the muh-RIN-duh sound; it also happens to echo the soft-drink brand Mirinda, which we note without asserting a link.Low

History & Origin
Mirinda is a variant of Miranda, the name Shakespeare built for The Tempest from the Latin mirandus, 'worthy of admiration'. The respelling keeps that lovely meaning intact; the same string also names a citrus soft drink sold worldwide, a coincidence we flag honestly rather than treat as the source.
It was always rare, a couple dozen girls a year around the late nineteen-seventies. It reads as an uncommon spelling of an admired classic rather than a name on the rise.
