Can anyone suggest pretty welsh girls names that the English can pronounce? So names like Bethan(y), Eirys, Gwynneth. Just stuck for other ideas!

Anything that avoids a ll or ch sound should be easy enough to pronounce!

Lowri

I love Angharad. Can’t think of many Welsh names. Myfanwy? Gwyneth? Annwyn?

Josiahbartlett · 17/03/2018 21:28

Thanks all! Cerys /carys is out due to niece but otherwise all good!

Catrin and Nia are favs - good friends at school. Very under used in my opinion.

It just depends on how you define 'easy to pronounce'. Are you happy to correct people a couple of times?

Safe: Megan, Bronwen, Bethan, Dilys, Lyn

Should be easy but not necessarily: Angharad (Angryhead), Sian (See-Ann), Cerys (See-rice), Nerys (Near-ice), Rhiannon
