How on earth do you pronounce this name! Apparantly its popular in wales, but honestly, can anyone outside of wales pronounce it...or even say its pretty?
i have heard its two syllables, but i guessed Gwor or Goo-er or Goo-ay-ur

Hi!

Judy Sierra in the book "Celtic Baby Names" gives the pronunciation GWOWR (ow as in "how").

Welsh word for dawn, occasionally used as a name...

but not that popular in Wales. See Satu's post for the pronounciation.
