Re: Gwen
Yes, I think Gwen can stand on its own. It's pretty, but for some reason I think it sounds a little "blah" to me. Plus, it reminds me of Gwen Stefani, and by extension her vaguely racist Harajuku Girls...I prefer Blanca over Gwen. It's more classic, and was a common royal name among the Spanish monarchies at one time.

I feared the Gwen Stefani association. While I have nothing against her personally, it's not an association that I want to pop into others' minds when they hear the name Gwen. I agree that it's a little blah, but lately I've been strangely attracted to names that could be classified as having 'no frills attached'. They sound unsubstantial but yet appealing in their simplicity and shortness.BTW, I love your icon. It lists most of my pet peeves concerning grammar and spelling, lol.
