Help[Opinions] Welsh BAs
Not many this month:
(m) Jacob Llewelyn, parents Osian & Sian, brother Tomos
(f) Gwenllian Haf, parents Sioned & Neil
(m) Sion Ellis, parents Anna & Paul, brothers Gethin & Ben
(m) Math Iolen, parents Elin & Hedd, brother Cian, grandparents Cynrig & Carys
(f) Carlota, parents Ceri & Gethin
(m) Tomos Hedd, parents Thomas & Angharad, sibs Alaw Haf & Efan Sion, grandparents Ifor & Valmai
Not in the database:
Math was a wizard king in the Mabinogion.
Iolen is pronounced YO-len and is really unusual - meaning unknown.
Hedd (heth) is the Welsh word for peace
Cynrig (CUNrig) is the name of a river and means 'stream from the heights'
Valmai seems to have been invented around 1899 in Wales and had a little popularity spike between then and the 1950s - I see it a lot in obituaries. It's a bit of a mystery. Nobody seems to know where it came from originally, and V is not a letter in Welsh.
