Meaning and background
The story behind Vada
Vada is the given name of Vada Sultenfuss in My Girl, according to Sony Pictures' own film description. Anna Chlumsky plays the eleven-year-old character, whose story involves childhood friendship, first love, and loss. This is a clear fictional association for the exact name. It offers a more secure explanation of a possible film-inspired choice than an unsupported claim about what Vada means in an ancient language.
