I'd love to hear ideas for lovely Welsh names that aren't too tricky to pronounce and spell for the average non-Welshie!

So far we love:
Anwen
Ffion
Eirlys (although husband can't say this one so not sure!)

And for boys:
Evan
Brynley

Any suggestions? Thanks x

Nia
Anwen

Iestyn?

I have a Taliesin, well as a middle name anyway.

Congrats on your baby!

Seren for a girl? Means 'star'. Efa (pronounced Ava), Gwen/Gwenllian.

Teifion, Taliesin for a boy?
