Welsh girl’s names?
Can anyone who knows the Welsh language suggest a nice, not too hard to say (for non-welsh) name for our soon to be born Welsh pony filly? preferably with the meaning... or maybe a website?

This brings back wonderful memories of helping my friend name her Arabian filly, Chalon (pronounced Shalon). I included the website of Welsh names for you to look at. Below are my favorites.
Enfys – (EN-vees) Welsh word for "rainbow", and currently popular.
Epona – known to all Celts as the Divine Horse and Great Mare, she was a goddess associated with horses, their breeding, adn all warriors who used horses.
Nia – (NEE-ah) Welsh form of Irish name Niamh, from Old Irish niam "luster, sheen, brilliance".

My real name is Chrysanthemum, but I don’t know if it’s Welsch.

Bronwyn is Welsh and I like Rhianna, that is also Welsh. My husband is from South Wales from the Valley’s. I recommend this website. I hope that will help. Wishing the best = )

Dwynwen (pronounced as "dooin’ when") is a lovely Welsh name.
And on Anglesey there is a spot on Llanddwyn (see the second part "ddwyn" derived from Dwynwen) island where St Dwynwen is said to be buried.
She is the patron saint of lovers for Welsh people – like St Valentines. There are ruins of a small church on Llanddwyn and also an old lighthouse which was used by Demi Moore in her latest film Half Light which recently received its UK premiere.

There are only two welsh names:
Men and boys are all called Dafydd Davies.
Women and girls are all called Myfanwy Davies.
