[Opinions] Welsh names
I found the top names exclusively for Wales (as opposed to the England and Wales ones), which was super exciting to me. What do you think of these names from the top 100s of 2022?

I love Welsh names, but I agree with Claire below me; unfortunately, not many do the trick for me 😔. I love Alys, Eleri, and I appreciate Nansi (Nancy is a favorite name of mine). I also really enjoy Macsen; Mac is such a handsome and strong nickname!
I like a lot of welsh names but none of these really do it for me. They’re all sort of… tepid? Maybe my taste is a bit old fashioned.In the top 100 welsh names list I found, I quite like:
Idris, Rhys, Owen, Eira and Seren.
Tomi, Tomos, Eleri, Lili, and Mali are cool.
So both Tomos and Tomi are listed? Interesting! I've always enjoyed Macsen and Efa; Nansi is fun, but I'd use Nancy. Same with Alys/Alis and Alice.
Yes! Tomos was 48th and Tomi was 76th. Tommy also ranked 15th, and Thomas 23rd.
I like Macsen, Ioan, and Alys. Love Macsen nn Mac.
I like Macsen, Tomi (solely as a nickname), Alys, Eleri, Lili, Mabli and Nansi. Ioan is odd, but I find it okay; same with Efa. Mali is bland and I don't like Tomos at all.
I'm not a fan of any of the boys. On the girls side, Alys, Efa and Eleri are ok.
I like the names Macsen, Tomi and Lili
