In Dungeons & Dragons, there’s an elven goddess named Angharradh. The name is probably based on this one. Much like the mythological Angharad, she’s the lover of a knight (Corellon, the head of the elf pantheon).
Angharad Rees (1944-2012) was a Welsh actress and, later, jewellery designer. She was probably best known for playing Demelza in the 1975 television adaptation of Poldark.
Angharad, or "The Splendid Angharad" (portrayed by Rosie Huntington-Whiteley), is the favored wife of the warlord antagonist in George Miller's Mad Max: Fury Road (2015).
Angharad is also the name of one of the main characters in Richard Lewellyn's very popular novel 'How Green Was My Valley', made into a film by John Ford in 1941. Her character was played by Maureen O'Hara.
