HelpRe: Welsh BAs
in reply to a message by Pie
I like Cara and Theo
I know a toddler Tomos and like its pronunciation. His sister is Beca Elen
Emyr is a grand name, and it looks great in that combo.
Not directly related to your post, but one very rare Welsh name seems to be Aeres - I wonder whether you have come across it. (The Aeres I know is from Camarthen)
I'm not really fond of Martha although since it was my great-grandmother's name I wish I could like it. A Welsh friend's elderly mother is called Martha ("Mattie" or perhaps "Matti").
Somewhat off-topic, I have noticed that in South Pembrokeshire ("Little England Beyond Wales"), the following names persisted over the generations among all families:
Ann
Elizabeth
Frances
Letitia
Martha
Phoebe
Nothing inherently Welsh among them, of course!
