We currently have Bronwyn and Emrys.

As much as DS is pleading I am not planning to call the new one Baby Gus (he did actually sob over that today ).

Please list oodles of welsh names of both genders. I will offer many thanks but can't see me being polite enough to comment on every single name (but bonus points for honesty yes???)

I have looked on too many sites now and the names are all merging into one - feel like this way I can just show DH a thread of names and it will be simpler

I've always fancied Merlin and Idris. Not sure I could actually do it though.

(Oh the currently have is as in our current DC, not on a short list).

Can't have BabyDragon's name... love it but tis the same as one of my closest friend's and I don't want the whole matching children thing

You're all very good at lists

Taliesin - we both love but DH says he will never master the spelling no matter how much he practices

BabyDragon has a welsh name.

I know a Griff and a Rhys, both of which I like.

I also rather like Gus.

DH is dyslexic - we went with the spelling that he was most happy with

But Bronwen is traditionally spelt with an e rather than a second y.
