I really like Rhiannon and Rhiannedd, but I've been ignoring Rhian because every one I've known has been a -insert foul word-

But thinking about it, it's kinda nice :/

Pn the simple English way since although I currently live in Wales, I am English and baby will probably grow up in England.

I've never known any Rhians nice or horrible, my unbiased ears like it. Like Rhiannon too mainly because I love the Fleetwood Mac song.

I'm a Rhian and would be gutted if someone said I wasn't nice to be around 😕💔

I only know of a man, musician, called Ree-un and I think he spells his name Rhian Sheehan.

I like Rhiannon and Ariane.
I also like a new name that I learnt, Annina, used as one of PEugenie's new DD's middle names..

I'd go with Ariane, which is quite pretty.

I don't like any of the Rhian names for girls, but then I'm not Welsh so take my comments in context. They all sound masculine to me - and then some have the flurries at the end to make it a bit girly.

I just see similarities to Brian and diarrhea.

Thread is from 2014. Yet another bored poster reviving an ancient thread to tell us it's their name.

Yes Annina was cute. I thought that too.
