I think my favourite from your list is Lowenna.

I've always liked Tamsin/Tamzin too.

Happy for views on the ones I posted and also suggestions.

DH thinks Veryan sounds more like a surname and not feminine but I quite liked it...

Morwenna always makes me think of Morwenna Banks and DH not keen

Jenna is a pet form of Guinevere.

Janey50 · 23/06/2016 22:22

Jenna?

reynoldsnumber · 23/06/2016 22:14

I was going to say Veryan, or Tamsin

Clarkgriswoldforever · 23/06/2016 22:14

Tegen? Means "pretty"

Are you looking for more or wanting votes on your list.
My favourite name is Morwenna with Veryan a close second.
Of your list, it is Lamorna.

Demelza? Also I know of quite a few Sennen's down here, both girls and boys. It's not a Cornish name, but I love Rowena and the lady who built the Minack Theatre was called Rowena. Congratulations. Flowers
