welsh name suggestions?

[mummypeanut]

my husbands a welsh speaker but being male he has not interest in names at the moment.

Does anyone have any good welsh names which dont require english people needing a pronounciation lesson?

For example, I liked ffion (fee-on) but my neice is now called that so we cant use it. Anymore for anymore?

My son is called Evan and everytime I tell someone his name they go 'Thats welsh isn't it?'. I think it is, but I actually got it from my favorite american singer when I was younger Evan Dando x

Enid, Bronwyn, Rhiannon

...Dylan was mention but most people (English speakers) say it wrong - I was given a lesson by my Welsh OH, as is Lloyd and Llewellyn.

Arian, Aled, Dai

I knew a Welsh man called Gwyn, although I think it means white The feminine form is Gwyneth

Btw I cant help but read all these names in a really overexaggerated Welsh accent in my head

 

[mummypeanut]

Lots of the names seem to mean white something...Eirwyn means snow white....it seems to refer to my husbands milk bottle skin!!

And your right about saying the names with a very cardiff accent...i think something happens in my brain and i end up with it coming out cardiff style!!

How about Hadyn for a boy and Angharad for a girl?
