Title says it all really! Don't live in Wales but DH has Welsh heritage.

Love Serena but pronounced Serenna not Sereena. Spanish for calm/ tranquil.

I like Seren and Serenity too.

I know two born in the past year from fb contacts (both school friends, in two different parts of England).

I'm from S Wales and lived most of my life there. Never came across a single Seren? I think it's nice, I think I might slightly prefer Serena. Here in Cornwall you can't move for bumping into a Sennen, but usually used for a boy I think.
I also love Nia, Cerys, Branwen/Bronwen, Cariad, and Rhian.

I liked Serena, but Seren runs the risk of sounding like Sarin, if people guess how to pronounce it, sorry.

I love it. Uncommon in England although very, very popular in Wales which has kept me from using it as there are just so many here.

I live in SE England and know a Seren. It's a very unusual name here, yet I've never known anyone to forget/mispronounce it, despite the fact most have never come across it before.

I absolutely love it!
