Rhydian or Rhodri?

[lucieloos]

We are welsh and live in Wales. Not sure which one we prefer?

I prefer Rhydian, but Rhodri is nice too.

I prefer Rhodri, I'm not Welsh though.

Do you live in a Welsh speaking area? Rhodri is probably easier to pronounce for non Welsh speakers.

Omg these are amazing names OP! No wonder you are struggling.
Rhydian wins just slightly for me, but honestly they're both great

I'm Welsh and I love Rhodri.
Not so keen on Rhydian.

I also like Meredydd and Gruffydd.

I like Rhodi best

I live in Wales, love both your choices.

Rhodri

I’m not welsh and I prefer Rhodri.

But that could just be because I associate Rhydian with the one from the X factor years ago! A slightly out of date reference!

I'm Welsh, and I love the name Rhydian

Love Rhydian. Not Welsh.

Rhodri because I have a slight crush on Rod Gilbert.

Rhodri.
Welsh living in England.
Doesn't work with our surname but it was one we considered.

Rhodri

My only reference for Rhydian is also the X-Factor years ago, I haven't heard of it before or since. But I'm not Welsh and don't live in Wales so that might not be relevant! My vote is for Rhodri, though

I know lots of people with both names. I've always preferred Rhodri. I think it's a lovely name and ages well.

Great thank you, most seem to prefer Rhodri. There's also the option of Tomos if that makes a difference?

Ooh I love Tomos! Either are great, OP!

I'm Welsh and love the name Rhydian, although agree that Rhodri is easier to travel with.

I have a soft spot for the name Tomos too...you've basically chosen three of my favourite boys names!

Ohh how to decide?! I do like all 3 as well. I was initially thinking maybe Tomos as a middle name but I do like it as a first name too. So...

Rhydian
Rhodri
Tomos

One of those for first name and one for middle name?!

Rhydian! Much nicer. I am not Welsh but have endured many episodes of Wolfblood where one of the characters is called Rhydian and I always think it's lovely.

Rhodri Tomas is LOVELY. Rhydian is nice but despite not being an x factor fan at all, that's the first thing I thought of!

Yes I'm quite liking Rhodri Tomos

Rhodri Tomos sounds gorgeous OP
