I used to work with a lady who gave her daughter this name. Had never hear it before, or since, and always wondered if she'd just made it up to try to sound "posh"

Anyone ever come across this before?

Pretty sure it’s Welsh! I know one (live in England).

WorriedWife3 · 28/04/2024 21:46

Are you sure it's not Angharad?

MagicKittens · 28/04/2024 21:46

Yep, it'll be Angharad.

DanglingMod · 28/04/2024 21:47

Not Angharad, the Welsh name?

Dartmoorcheffy · 28/04/2024 21:47

It's angarahad,a Welsh name

TokyoSushi · 28/04/2024 21:47

Do you mean Angharad? It's Welsh!

MagicKittens · 28/04/2024 21:47

Do you mean she actually spelt it Ann-Harrod?

Concretejungle1 · 28/04/2024 21:47

No its not made up its welsh, not spelt like that.

MyLovelyPurse · 28/04/2024 21:48

It's Angharad, which is pronounced Ann Harrod

It is most certainly not pronounced that way! 😂

PiggieWig · 28/04/2024 21:49

Angharad, surely! Ann-Harrod after the department store would be a strange way to try to sound posh

WelshNerd · 28/04/2024 21:49

If she actually spelt it Ann-Harrod I will die from second hand embarrassment.

Not quite!!!

PotteringAlonggotkickedoutandhadtoreregister · 28/04/2024 21:50

I would have called mine Angharad if I’d had a girl!

Ann-Harrod made me laugh a lot. 😀

HollyCanDoAnything · 28/04/2024 21:52

No, definitely not Angharad. I love that name. But i saw it written down and it was spelt the same way as the shop, which is why i wondered if it was some weird kind of snobbery.

I've known two Angharads. Not posh at all... a nice name, I think

Wisenotboring · 28/04/2024 21:53

I think it might be an incorrect version of anghared in the same way that some people call their child Shivaughn or neeve

Then she has just anglicised the Welsh name. If it was her that wrote it down.

Sweetdreams98 · 28/04/2024 21:54

Oh sweet God! Ann-Harrod 😂

MrsCreek · 28/04/2024 21:55

Sounds like someone I know who named their kid "Jackamo" Confused

WinterMorn · 28/04/2024 21:55

Oh come on…😂😂😂😂

dreadisabaddog · 28/04/2024 21:58

Omg Jesus wept. That's a yoo-nique spelling for sure!
