Hi, everyone. I was hoping to get some opinions on the name Ceridwen. I'm from the U.S., and I have a feeling it would be too bulky for a child here, but I've been in love with it since I was in middle school. I appreciate that Ceridwen has both the "witchy" (destruction and rebirth) and "goddessy" (knowledge and inspiration) associations. I'm a writer, so I find that she was said to possess a "cauldron of poetic inspiration" really nifty.

Those who are familiar with Welsh, am I correct in pronouncing it keh-RID-wen? Does anyone have nn suggestions that don't sound like Kerry/Carrie?
