Rhiannon - from tripitaka
myfanwy - from stopper
gwen - from vtmarik
Megan - from koronna

Tripitaka wrote:My Welsh friend suggested Anwen - which she claims means "very beautiful" - of course she could just be saying that to make me look like a prize plum, when really it means "goat-herder" or something as equally savory!

So how about Gwyneth instead? Or does that remind you too much of the type of girl who cries her eyes out, just because someone gives her a silly, little, gold statuette?

it was such a beautiful statue...oh stop it, i'm welling up

i would of thought that anwen would mean something like 'pure' as wen often means white in welsh names. either way you now have two names on the list. aren't you a clever little monkey!

the letter k is an conundrum that the welsh language has not conquered yet.
therefore, no.
and anyway as i have stated before - it is my thread, and if i want to move the goalposts and make arbitrary rulings on a whim, then i will. so there

that just seems like a cold and heartless way of picking a kids name. this way has much more thought behind it.

Well it does provide you with 1000 American names you shouldn't pick. :lol:

Yeah it was Gay Lord, he just told people it was Glen.

I'm just saying that there are some names you do not want for yourself or your children.

Skittles! · Post by **Skittles!** » Fri Aug 17, 2007 7:13 am

I wonder why my parents didn't think of that.

Okay; How about Matilda, or Anatolia?
