Huw

I found out today that an acquaintance I have known for awhile has a brother named Huw. I always assumed it was Hugh...WDYT of Huw? Hugh?Honestly, I had never seen this spelling until now and had to look it up to see if it was legit. I already thought Hugh was one of the ugliest names going but I think Huw makes it worse.

I used to know a Huw. He was a nice guy, but I've never been fond of the name Hugh regardless of spelling. I agree that Huw is worse than Hugh.

It's really common where I'm from (Wales) and a bit boring. I prefer Hugo.

I actually know a few HuwsAnd this post is also a little crazy weird, because I also know an Elysse with a brother named Huw :OSaw on your profile that you're in Australia...me too :OWhat a crazy coincidence if we're talking about the same person!

Well, I'm biased, because I like Hugo and Hugh. Huw is interesting! I think I like the non-Welsh versions a bit better, but that may be just because I'm more used to them.What's your acquaintance's name?
