I know a Ceinwen, who says it KINE-wen. She's pretty awesome which colours my perception of the name.

I'm really out of practice at this! But Ceinwen was easy even so, I guess it flows with lots of different emphasis structures.

I would assume CAYN-wen, but I don't speak Welsh, so I guess I'm not much of a source. I like it very much. It's sweet and delicate.

I say it KINE-wen. It's alright. I don't specifically like it, but since it makes me think of the character in How Green was my Valley, it feels a little sentimental. It does make me think of a girl with long blonde hair and a flowy white dress, which is a pretty image. I don't have any combos for it though, and can't really think of what I'd pair it with. Maybe something more traditional? Ceinwen Elizabeth just popped into my head, which I know is sort of a cheater middle name, but hey, I like it in that combo. :)
