Tesni Ffion or Mabli Mai

[RoseApp]

Posting for a friend who is Welsh but lives in England at the moment.

Tesni Ffion
Tesni Mai
Mabli Mai
Mabli Elen

Or so people have other favourite Welsh names?

Mabli Elen

Mabli was on our list. I love both. Sorry no help

Ffion Mai

Mabli Ffion

Mabli, Elen and Ffion probably the least likely to get mispronounced. All nice names.

Tesni , Ffion and Mabli are all lovely . I don’t like Mabli Mai as a combo .

Tesni Mai

Definitely not Mabli Mai.

Mabli Elen

I’ve got a Ffion in England and I’ve been really surprised how many people have struggled with it. We’re not that far away from Wales either! Only 30 mins from the bridge!

I like the last three options! No help at all sorry!

Can I ask how Mai is pronounced? Is it like the month May?

I love Welsh names.
Mabli Enfys

More like “my”

The “a” in Mai is pronounced like the ‘a’ in “anchor”, but the rest is pronounced the same.

Not Mabli Mai - it's a bit Molly-Mae.

I've heard of so many 'Mabli's recently, so my worry would be that maybe it will become a little too 'popular?' Love Tesni and Elen, or maybe Erin or Eleri.

So many dogs called mabli, ffion is very classic

Any combination apart from Mabli Mai

Tesni Ffion is my favourite. I also like Mabli, but not Mabli Mai, and Mabli Elon doesn't flow well. Mabli Ffion is lovely.

I have a Carys in England which is always pronounced right. My original first choice was Ffion but it is pronounced the same as anus/arse in French so I ruled that out given we travel to France a bit!

Is it pronounced Tess-ni or Tezz-ni?

Mabli Wynn

How is Mabli pronounced?

Also, would she consider Carys or Bronwen/Anwen?

Elen is the safest bet in terms of pronunciation. I don’t like Mabli Mai. I prefer Mali to Mabli.
