My neighbour looking for Cornish inspiration likes Carenza best at moment

Kerenza! It’s how I’ve spelt my own girls name.

Kerenza

I've only ever seen it spelt Kerenza before. Not sure which is more authentic. Lovely name though. Elowen is also very pretty.

There's Morwenna too. In Poldark she was the poor girl forced into marriage with that porcine vicar. Nice name though!

Lowenna or Kerenza

Other suggestions
Damelza
Morwenna
Sennen
Merryn
Bryher
Kensa

Merryn is beautiful

Carenza in any form sounds a bit too much like a writing desk to me.

Kerenza is lovely. Also like Elowen, Morwenna and Merryn.

Is she hoping the child will grow up to be an elf?

Is Loveday Cornish??? I feel that it is but not sure

Elowen from your list but agree re Morwenna and Merryn

Yup, carenza always sounds like furniture to me!

My favourite Cornish name is Tegan. Still regret not fighting harder for it!

Yes Tegan or Tegen are great too

I once met a Zennor, which I thought was pretty fabulous. I also worked with a Tamar, named as her mum loved Cornwall so much. So I guess looking at place names may give some more ideas. Didn't the Camerons use Endellion in their daughter's names?

Are you rude about Welsh, Scottish and Irish names as well?

Kerenza
Lowenna
Elowen
Esyld

Love them all, especially Eseld which is Cornish for Iseult.

Morwenna is a fabulous name which is also on my list (it's Welsh as well as Cornish).

Kerenza is lovely (afaik it's always a K in Cornish, e.g. Kernow).
When I was at school it was one of the most popular traditional names down there, but that was 30+ years ago so probably has no bearing on names now.
Other Cornish names in my class/es were Lowenna, Benneth, Kayna, Kenza, Delenick, Demelza, Tamsin, Jenna. As pp I've always loved Tegan and Loveday, but never actually met any.
