Calling all Welshies- name help please

[Pixiefish]

I'm due #2 in November. Have got a boys name sorted- Iddon Meilir. Need to sort a girls name out now. I have a very English surname beginning with M. I am Welsh and really fancy a Welsh name for #2. Dd has a Welsh name. i fancied mabli but a friend has just beaten me to it
I wouldn't mind resurrecting an olde Welsh name but dh doesn't say the Ll very well- i had fancied Llenwedd but the Ll makes it impossible for dh.

Help me please

Da iawn ti!

'u' vowel a bugger to get right.Harder than 'll'I reckon.

I think I'm in one of the "Welshest" most Welsh parts of Wales, so should have no excuses

I used to just try and avoid saying it, but dd2 got on the stage this year in Carmarthen with her school choir, so it has become unavoidable.

Lovely chatting to you all, pob lwc a nos da pawb, goodnight!

Emsie,thrust tongue forward as you say 'eee'.
That does it.

Go for it Mam.Lots of free classes about.

Yes Nos Da.
Gwaith i fi fory!!

lol

There are hundred (nay thousands) of 20 somethings in Georgia and North Carolina that can say Llanfairpwll.......... after the many years I spent in summer camp too!

I love Seren.

The only one we agreed on was Bronwyn (yes, I know not spelt in tradional welshness - but welsh DH chose the spelling and since he is the dyslexic we went with what he found easiest!!! )

I was also wanting Carys (moreso than Cerys)

Love Bethan too, but tis my cousin.

(For more names there we have Sian, Gwenllian, Myffanwy ?sp, and Angharad)

DS is Emrys

I fancy Betsan but that's the Welsh of Elizabeth and I don't want anyone thinking I'm a Royalist- sorry all you Bethan's out there.

I'm also a teacher and have a real name block with some names- I always think - ach no there was that girl in year whatever who was horrible.

I really would like an old Welsh name- from the Mabinogi but all I can think of is Branwen (was in school with one plus dh doesn't want it to be abbreviated which it would be to Bran) Heledd (again in school plus a friedn of dd's is a Heledd) Dd has a very short name beginiing with E and meaning Ireland so I can't have any of the Eira's, Elin's etc.

I fancy- Mali, Glain, Iona. Dh wants Parys (we live near a mountain called that) but I have said no bloody way am I naming my dd after Paris bloody Hilton

at Parys.Good point!
(I like that Parys mountain song-hear it on Champion,dunno who sings it.)
Glain is good. V good

My dd is Rhiannon, I really wanted Cerridwen but dh objected.

Boy was going to be Owen.

My paternal grandmother was welsh, but her name was Phyllis (probably not keen on that)

Want 'Llwyfo' to be a middle name as well- although I realise that is very masculine.

In a way twould be easier if the baby was a boy - that's all sorted

'llwyfo' a bit like 'llwyddo' I think.Which is prob. no bad thing eh?

Re Iddon.
I met a baby called Iddon last week.First time I've ever heard it.

Really like Mali.
Is Iona Welsh? Thought it was Scottish.
My nephew is Osian which I love ( the name and teh boy)!!

I loved the name Seren ever since I heard it in my Welsh evening class twelve years ago and now it's the middle name of dd. If we have another girl, I really like the name Elin.

For a boy, I think Iolo is a great name, especially as Iolo Morgannwg was such an interesting character.
