Help[Opinions] Re: Welsh BAs
in reply to a message by Frollein Gladys
Always feel free to ask!
Adleis intrigues me too. It's really rare, and it's so close to the word adlais 'echo' that I thought it was a typo at first. I've seen it a few times now and I'm still unsure if it's related to adlais or a Welshification of Adelais / Adelaide.
Hywel is totally a grandpa name - I've never met or heard of a young one, although apparently there were 10 babies given the name last year. I'd use it though. :)
Siân is technically correct - the to bach ('little roof') lengthens the vowel & makes it shaaaaaan and not shan to rhyme with can. Lots of Siâns don't write it, though.
Mei is usually short for Meilyr or Meirion. I'm not a fan of the short-form as full name trend, the fancy long names are great imo
Myfyr = 'meditation' - it's pronounced MUH veer
I eyerolled a bit at the last set too. Never seen Rion before - maybe it's another short form for Meirion or Eirion
