Though I thought the high inquisitor and heart of valmar in grandia 2 was called Selene.

No certain letters because some letters in the English language is not in the Welsh language.

my suggestion, (i have a friend with this name and think it's beautiful):
Marzanna, Morana or Morena is a Slavic goddess. Her exact function is unclear. She is most often believed to be a Goddess of harvest and witchcraft. She is described as a beautiful black-haired girl with extremely pale complexion.
In some medieval Christian sources such as the Mater Verborum she is compared to Hecate.
Her relationship to Mara, Goddess of death, is unclear; some sources equate the two.
In late medieval sources she becomes a Goddess of winter as well as death. Her name is based on the Slavic root mor, used in words such as "peril", "nightmare", "death" and "plague".
In mythology of East Slavs she is a goddess of fertility and protector of all female.

I am so touched to see that my contribution got onto the shortlist! In spite of its drawbacks...
(shudders at the memory of one of Daffyd's* outfits as he spoke to Myfanwy**)
* Spelling?
** Spelling?

Oh, and though I don't want to push my suggestion too hard, I believe it has the lowest ratio of vowels-to-consonants of all the names on the shortlist. It's the Welshest name on there, surely!

don't you find words that are spelled completely differently to the way they are pronounced a little strange.
bucket is not pronounced bouquet after all.
