We are not in Wales but have Welsh heritage and so are thinking of names for a DS. Taliesin is the favourite so far.
If you are in Wales do you know any Taliesins? Is it a fairly popular name there or is it still quite 'out there'?
Thank you! :)

I wanted it for ds, Welsh dh was having none of it! I had Taliesin and Idris on my list.

I live in very Welsh area of North Wales and haven't met any.

I know a Welsh cob called Taliesin, not sure if that helps

Our new grandsons middle name is Taliesin ♥️

Why do the zombie threads seem to get re-opened in the early hours of the morning by users with no other posts, and why do they claim to have, or have a child or grandchild with, an unusual name? @GrannyJani

I absolutely love it. Welsh born and bred but I've never actually met one. It's one of the names on my 'I wish I'd used this' list for my DS, but he's 19 now so it's probably too late to change!

(Also probably too late for this thread to have any impact on the OP, whose son will be nine now!)
