Seren

[Sandstormbrewing]

What do people think? It's Welsh for star. DH is 1/4 Welsh, his grandmother (most beloved and now gone) had a very welsh name which she hated but we'd like to honor her in some way.

One of the best Welsh names in my opinion good choice.

Very popular name in Wales now, but a couple of generations ago was only mainly used for cows!

I love it and would have used it if there was even the slightest Welsh connection.

It's OK but getting overdone now. I prefer Serena.

Beautiful name!

I don’t really like it in any accent, (sorry). It’s fine though. Just a bit blah to me.

I’d use this for a boy also.

I like it and know quite a few, live in Wales though

It's a cow's name.
It sounds crap in an English accent.
Will be the Shannon/Sharon of it's day.

Very nice name.

If you're outside of Wales then I'd go for it.
If you're in Wales be prepared for there to be other Seren's in your child's class.

I think it's a lovely name though, but I'm welsh so many biased.

I am a teacher in Wales and in nearly 20 years I have only taught 3 Serens. So it may seem popular but in my experience it isn't. It is a lovely name x

I have several Welsh friends no longer living in Wales with pets named this as a nod to their heritage so it is an animal name for me.

That aside, I do like the sound of it and it looks pretty written down.

I like it.

I have 2 Serens and 2 Serenas in my class this year, but there aren't many other Serens in the school.

Wondering what the GMum's unliked Welsh name is.... Buddug?
