Elwyn, Henson & Laylen

[IdentifyThisGuy]

What do you think of these 3 for boys?

Elwyn is probably the only one that I like if I'm honest.

Henson sounds like a surname (which I don't like being used for first names) and Laylen sounds like a girl's name x

Agree with everything Writer said.

Nd I agree too.
Henson reminds me of Gavin Henson, a prime knob.

Elwyn sounds very LOTR, Henson is very much associated with Gavin, especially in Wales, the last did sound like it's a girls name.

However, if you really love them use them.

I also agree with writer

I like Elwyn and Henson, I thought of Jim Henson (creator of muppets) rather than Gavin.

Laylen is unsual, I thought it was Layton at first.

Which is your fav OP?

Elwyn - LOTR
Henson - Gavin the Gobshite (it pains me that I think of him first rather than Jim the Genius)
Laylen - It's just a bit silly

What does LOTR mean????

Lord of the Rings.

I really like Elwyn, I do know an Elwyn and he's a lovely chap!

I also like Henson...my first thought was Gavin but I do like and know Gavin Henson i think its a pretty cool name.

Leylen? Where's that from then? It's not great. Henson is ok but I'm not keen of SAFNs. Elwyn is quite cool, presuming its a real name and not from LOTR.

I don't like any of them. None of them even sound like names to me.

None of them, sorry.
Elwyn sounds like a female elf's name. Henson is a surname and instantly makes me think of muppets. Laylen sounds like a van making company.

Elwyn is a traditional Welsh name and quite old fashioned if I'm being honest. The other two don't really 'match' and I don't think much of Laylen -sorry.

I had an ancient uncle Elwyn on my mum's side when I was little, obviously Welsh...I quite like it! Might put it on the list but suspect DH will hate it...

Don't like the other two, sorry.

Laylen sounds like an oddball from Twin Peaks, Henson= Kermit.
I am Welsh and Elwyn is the equivalent of Clive or Nigel.

Don't like any. I reckon they all sound like made up or deliberately misheard variations of odd words.

Here's where you tell us they are all fine old traditional indigenous Anglo Saxon heraldic names of yore, isn't it?

thumbs down for me on all (sorry).
I went to school with a Thane. That was cool & it's from old English (heraldic, etc.)

I know a 3 year old Elwyn. (His dad is Welsh.)

Mmm bop

I like Laylen best

Agree they sound made up and therefore and bit chavvy to me, sorry.

I love Elwyn and it is on my list as we are expecting a boy at the end of the year. Have you thought about Owain? Similar sounding and great history behind the name

Not keen on any of them, sorry.

First thoughts were:
Elwyn - Welsh
Henson - Jim (muppets)
Laylen - Leyland (a place near where I live)

If I had to choose one it would be Henson.
I don't mind some surname-y names though prefer Jackson, Jameson or Wilson.
