HelpRe: Welsh BAs
in reply to a message by Anneza
Don't know about down South, but in North Wales Deio is day-o. It's a very common nn for David and Dafydd.
Llio was originally a short form of Gwenllian, but it's often used as a full name now.
Lliwen seems to be a fairly modern invention - I can't find any usage before 1911. It looks like it's made out of lliw (colour) and gwyn (white, fair, blessed, beautiful, various other meanings) so combine those as you will :) I just checked and it's also the name of a small river in Denbighshire, but as the first people who were given the name lived nowhere near there, I'm not sure they're connected.
Tirion = kind, gentle. Nice meaning for a boy's name.
Sali Mair - yes, and that's the second Sali I've seen recently.
