Original name given to Merlin. Myrddin Emrys

Thoughts?

My favourite so far. Being Welsh myself wanting a Welsh first name that's easy for English to pronounce as now live in England

I like it a lot.

Lovely name and works well in England because so many anglophone people are familiar with Rhys either as a first name or a surname that it gives them something to cling onto.

Love it.
Know a few but are older gentleman. A good classic name. Also like Emyr but could be corrupted to sound like Emma in England.

Would be hard for the kid in England!

I love it. Also Emlyn.
