What do you think of Gwen? Maybe short for Gwendolen, but maybe just Gwen.

Love it!

Love it.

Lovely name.

So cute but also quite chic on an adult, feels fresh among all the currently popular frilly vowel-heavy, liquid consonant names

Gavin & Stacy or Mallory Towers?

Gwen is lovely, but I’d use Gwendolyn as the full name.

Monkelmo · 20/07/2023 19:41

I love it

shoopshoopdedoo · 20/07/2023 19:40

Absolutely love it!

I know two toddler Gwens! One is actually Gwenan but known to most as Gwen. Lovely name.

Reminds me of an old lady in a cardigan.

A beautiful name , it deserves a come back .

I’ve never seen it spelt like that, but I know a little Gwen, she is a Gwendolyn, and it is a very sweet name on her. I love it! You’ve also got Gwyneth

love it. It’s a friend’s DD’s name, and it’s one of my favourites of any kids I know.
