Seren?

love that name

Pinkchampagne · 29/03/2008 18:45

Carys is my favourite from your list. It was the name we would have used for DS1 if he had been a girl.

Like Cari and Mari best from your list. Slightly prefer Carys to Cerys.

Arwyn is a boy's name - Arwen is the female version (though don't sound too different when spoken admittedly). Awen also v similar.
