Opinions on the name Seren

I'm aware this is quite a popular name in Wales (I'm half Welsh and was born there but we live in the north of England now) but I don't know any girls called Seren in real life. I'm not sure it'll actually work with our surname, but it's the only name my DH and I have remotely agreed on yet.

Any thoughts? If you heard this would you be like "oh god not another Seren" or think it was weird?

Like it.

I think it's lovely!

And it's easy for non-Welsh people to pronounce, which is a bonus! (My daughter has a fairly-straightforward but not-very-common Welsh name which seems to flummox people!)

Don't know any (and in a neighbouring county to Wales) but I like it

I have never run into one teaching in Ireland.
I like it, but I do prefer Serena. Having said that, it's a lovely choice considering you've welsh family.

Love it. The only one I know of is Scottish.

I like it! I only know one (London).
