Having mulled it over, I like it. It's nicer than plain Ethel. There were quite a few of them in the UK in the late 19th century, with various spellings: -win, -wyne, wynne, wynd etc. -wyn looks more balanced to me, and was most common.
Ethelwyn Mary, Ethelwyn Maud, Ethelwyn Mabel & Ethelwyn Grace were common combo choices. It seems to work best with short, simple names.

It's lovely. I've never heard of it before. Is it used in literature anywhere?

Hmm, maybe: Ethelwynn Joan or Ethelwynn Therese or Ethelwynn Marta.

It's quite good, isn't it? Ethel alone, no, but the "wynn" changes it for the better.

I'm not good at combos, though.

I like it but not sure about it's usability. It seems rather medieval.

I prefer simply Ethel and do not feel the need to embellish it. However for some reason it reminds me of nature, and that alone makes it a little charming for me in its own way.

I'll try some combos just for fun. It's a cute little name with a lot of nickname opportunities. Winnie, Ethel, etc.
