Re: Bronwen or Bronwyn
I prefer the spelling Bronwyn but on a boy and Bronwen looks better on a girl.

Sorry - my message was confusing. Bronwyn is a girl's name, only spelled inauthentically.
What I meant was that Welsh names ending in the "white" suffix are always spelled -wyn, for example Dilwyn and the simple Wyn itself.
The name Owen shouldn't be considered part of this rule - it has a different root and meaning.
