Imelda
Shoe-obsessed first lady
Imelda is a feminine given name of Germanic origin.
The name gained notoriety through Imelda Marcos, wife of Philippine dictator Ferdinand Marcos, whose collection of thousands of shoes became a symbol of excess.
Someone with an Imelda-sized shoe collection has far more pairs than they could ever wear.
