I don't know the gender of our baby yet, but we already have a DD with a Welsh name (we live in Wales, DH & DD are Welsh, I'm English).

I'm finding thinking of girls' names a lot easier than boys but can't settle on my favourite yet. Most are Welsh/celtic.

Currently have:

Celyn
Della
Ffion
Eirlys
Olwen
Haf
Enaid

My favourite from your list is Eirlys.

I know several Ffions and Carys, two Alys, a Seren and an Eira (Mid-Wales).

Merryn
cerys
seren

(actually not sure if they are welsh but I know are all liked by welsh friend of mine who wanted something ‘Celtic’!)

Eira (means snow)

From your list I quite like Della.

Yes, quite a few have meanings:

Eira - Snow
Enaid - Soul
Celyn - Holly
Haf - Summer
