[Opinions] Welsh names are lovely...
in reply to a message by Lissa
Alanis -- I LOVE this name. I would probably use it (if I had a child) if it weren't for Alanis Morrisette. It's like... if a celebrity has an uncommon name, every time you hear that name, you will ALWAYS associate it with the celebrity. Farrah Fawcett and Uma Thurman are other examples. But Alanis *is* lovely. :)Alys -- niceAnwen -- cute! I like this better than Arwen, which is becoming popularBriallen -- eh... not so much...Bronwen -- sweet... I also like Bronté. :)Carys -- a little too Catherine-Zeta for my taste...Catrin -- sweetGwendolen/Gwendolyn -- Okay... my favorite Gwen- name is Gwenna. I think that's sweet.Gwyneth -- I like it more than Gwendolyn, but you have the same problem with this as you do with Alanis.Mair/Mairwen -- if it's pron. MY-er-win, then I love it. (That's how it should be pron.)Nerys -- neat!Wynne -- LOVE it! My hubby doesn't like this so much though...Dylan -- okay... but both Pamela Lee and Catherine Zeta have one of these. I think it's a bit too trendy. Just don't use it along with Carys! LOL.Evan -- I like this a lot!Gavin -- LOVE it!Owain -- It will be mis-pron. a lot, but it's nice.Rhys -- I like this too, but I think I prefer it for a girl.Nice names! I think Alanis, Mairwen and Gavin are my faves.*reyanna*
