We're not Welsh (DP has a Welsh grandfather though), but I really like it.

What do you others think of Seren as a name? We have a DS (Jude) already...do they go nicely together?

It always sounds a bit like Sarah gone wrong to me, when someone who isn't Welsh says it...

I don't like it very much and it seemed to be EVERYWHERE when I was last in Wales (a couple of years ago). I think it's quite commonplace there.

It’s lovely and quite popular in my part of Wales!

Definitely a girls name!

I wouldn’t personally call a child Star in English, but it’s a perfectly accepted Welsh name without the same kind of hippy connotations as Star would have.

I love it, gorgeous name.

@Proseccofuelled They were 13 when they went out! Then he had a few others before me at 15! Lol as I said she was one of my best friends in school, and she was such s lovely girl, that being an ex didn’t even come into my mind! Now if I was told in my twenties that dp fancied a name of an ex there would have been all hell to play! Lol

Ah a school ‘ex’ I get it now !

Pretty. Lovely with Jude too.

I think it's lovely. She was my favourite bit of the song in that CBeebies show years ago! The Welsh one. Abbadabs? It's not common here. Jude is.

Stella is star too. I like that as well. Shame about the lager. If you like Seren choose it!

I love it.

Beautiful name and goes lovely with Jude.
