Gwyneira?
WDYT of Gwyneira? It can be pronounced gwen-EYE-rah or gwen-AY-rah (Ay as in bay). Also, I really like the nns Gwen, Winnie and Eira.

That's how people generally say it in South Wales :)
I love the meaning as well. I love Brendan's taste in names!

I was surprised to see that this is in the BtN database. It *looks* made up to me. I'd much prefer Gwendolen Eira or Gwyneth Eira. I just don't think you'll get the credit you deserve for finding a buried treasure with this name. But it does sound pretty as "gwin-AY-ra."

I like it pronounced gwyn-EYE-rah. It's the name of one of my characters--Gwyneira "Gwyn" Evenstad.

I like gwen-AY-rah. Though, I pronounced it gwe-NEER-ah at first sight. Eira is my favorite nickname.
