I have been asked by some of my readers to update the listing of Welsh names for Boys and Girls. I have, in the course of my research located many different names. So many, in fact, I could never give them all to you.
So I thought that I would try and give you a small series of articles in which I will update as I uncover new names. Hopefully by the end of this series you will have a unique collection of names and their meanings that will inspire a name for a child. We will start this article by focusing on Girls names. · Aderyn - bird · Aelwen – beautiful brow · Aerona - like a berry · Aeronwen – fair berry · Anchoret – much loved · Aneira - honorable · Angharad - much loved · Angwen – very beautiful · Anwen - very beautiful · Anwyl - precious · Ardun - sublime · Arianrhod - silver · Arianwen – silver white · Aronwy - one who lives by the river · Arwenna - muse · Awel - gentle breeze · Awena – poetry, prophecy · Aylwen - fair brow · Bethan - form of Elizabeth-Anne · Blodwen – white flower · Bloudeuwedd - flower blossom · Brangane – white raven · Briallen - primrose · Brisen - queen · Bronwen, Bronwyn - white breast · Carey – dear · Caronwen - little fair love · Carys, Cerys - love · Catrin - Welsh form of Catherine · Ceinlys - sweet gems · Ceinwen - beautiful and blessed · Ceiridwen - goddess of bardism · Cerian - loved · Ceridwen – bright poetry · Cigfa - raven · Cordelia – sea jewel · Creirwy - fair crane · Crisiant - cyrstal · Cyhyreath - weeping · Cymry – of Wales · Dee – black, dark · Delchaem - daughter of king · Delwyn - neat · Delyth - pretty · Derryth - of the oak · Deryn – bird · Dilys – perfect · Dindrane - immaculate · Dogmaela - apportion · Don - Welsh mother god · Dwyn - holy · Dyllis – sincere · Eilwen - fair brow · Eirian - silver · Eirlys - snowdrop · Eirwen - snow white · Elen - nymph · Elenud - idol · Eleri - Welsh river name · Elwy - benefit · Elwyn - one with brown hair · Enat - soul · Enfys - rainbow · Enid - purity of soul · Epona - breed · Essylt - beautiful to behold · Eswen - strong one · Eurwen - gold and fair · Ffion - foxglove · Fflur - flower · Ganeida- sister of Merlin · Gaynor - smooth · Gladys – princess · Glenda - girl of the valley · Glenys - holy · Glynnis – valley or glen · Guinevere – white wave · Gwawl – light · Gwawr – dawn · Gwendolyn – white browed · Gwendydd - morning star · Gweneria - pure white snow · Gwenllian - fair, flaxen · Gwennol - swallow · Gwenog - smiling one · Gwenonwyn - lily of the valley · Gwylfai - may festival · Gwyneth – white maiden · Gwynne - white or fair one · Hafwen - fair summer · Heulwen - sunshine · Inira - honor · Iseult - beautiful one · Isolde – fair lady · Ivory - high born lady · Jennifer – white moon · Linette – idol · Llawela - like a rider · Llinos - linnet · Lona - princess · Lowri - Welsh form of Laura Go To Page: 1 2
