[Opinions] Re: Lewin
in reply to a message by Olwen
I've never seen it irl, but I'd be pleased to see it as a first name (I have a thing for medieval survivals) & think it's very usable - it's got a great meaning, it's easy to spell and say, and shortens neatly if you want it to. And it's got excellent history. There are multiple references to it, in its various forms, in the Domesday Book:
