Mabli and

[goinggoinggonee]

I'm pregnant with my second and am really struggling to come up with names. DH and I are Welsh but live in England. Don't mind if the next name is Welsh or English just don't want it to be common.

Mabli is pronounced Mab Lee.

Not finding out the sex

TIA

Betsi
Betrys
Non

Gruff is pronounced Griff.

I love the name Mabli (best Welsh name in my opinion) but do you get people saying Mab-er-li. Does my head in especially as it's family.

When is baby due?

Other suggestion:
Iona
Haf
Seren
Morfydd
Mali

@freezingpompoms aw thank you I do love it.

Once or twice someone has said Mab Er LI and when ive corrected they can't hear what they're saying wrong. She gets May Blee a lot when people see it written down and if I say her name quickly people think I'm saying Maddy. So a few challenges but I mostly get lovely comments about her name 🙂

Not due till the summer so got some time! Betsi is really lovely. Thanks for the Gruff pronunciation I wasn't sure.

Loads of names to add to my list thanks so much everyone

Nel is the Welsh spelling :-)

@FatGirlSwim I really like it! More than Nel actually, I just worry that she'll spend her life spelling it as we're in England 🤔

Mabli is gorgeous. I love the name Osian.
Eira is also lovely.

Mabli is a great name OP.

Mabli and:
Alys
Ffion
Tesni
Lowri
Eira
Nia
Teleri

Osian
Idris
Tomos
Macsen (you may prefer to avoid another M name though)

I met the loveliest Mabli last week - great name!

I have a Rhidian and we haven't met very many others (although we do have to correct the spelling a lot, as 'Rhydian' is so much more popular - I grew up near Llanrhidian so it looks wrong to me with a 'y'). I also love Macsen, Osian, Taran, Rhys and Ioan for boys, and Seren, Ffion, Carys, Bethan and Lowri for girls.

I've only ever met lovely Mabli's. I think all Mabli's must be lovely through the history of the universe.

Girl

Mabli and Nia

Mabli and Noa

Boys

Mabli and Rhys
Mabli and Celyn
Mabli and Deri
Mabli and Harri

Thank you for all the lovely mabli connections 🥰

Some really fantastic names here thank you. I think we're leaning towards a welsh name for a girl and an English name for a boy! Front runner for DH is Seren, it's very popular in wales which puts me off but not so much in England. I have a soft spot for Anwen but DH isn't keen. Love Ffion but where I am people will say Theeon
