[Opinions] Re: Branwyn
in reply to a message by Norah Namenerd
Hm. I can't decide. I love the name Branwen, and when I first saw Branwyn I figured it was just an alternate spelling. But I suppose adding the masculine "wyn" would work. The thing is, the people in the US who don't know much about Branwen (and wouldn't think it was like naming a boy Suzi) are the same people who don't knoe that "wyn" is masculine. They'll peobably think "wyn" is more feminine-looking than "wen" (the same people who name their daughters Bronwyn, etc). I guess what I'm trying to say is that I like it (I like pretty much anything with Bran in it :P), but I still think people will assume it's feminine wvwn though it's not common in the US.
