Zerelda Brass , the American girl from Malory Towers. I also remember her name as it sounds much like a RPG game character. Zerelda should be even used lesser in real world I suppose.
reread 2015 - Barney Series ,The Secret of Killimooin
reread Feb 2023 - The Rilloby Fair Mystery

Claudine - from St. Clare's
Wilhelmina - from Malory Towers
And I haven't come across any modern-day "Winifreds"

There was a second Wilhelmina, but used as a middle name.
In Secret Seven Mystery, the missing girl’s name is Elizabeth Mary Wilhelmina Sonning.

Interesting. A Wiki search says "Wilhelmina (also: Wilhelmena, Wilhelmine, Wilhemina) is a feminine given name, the Dutch, German and Yiddish form of Wilhelm or William, which is derived from the Germanic wil, meaning "will, desire" and helm, meaning "helmet, protection"."
