[Opinions] Re: Gwen
in reply to a message by EMB
I *love* Gwendolyn / Gwendolen / Gwendoline "Gwen". I think it's simply wonderful. A classic, somewhat proper name with a fun, spunky nickname. Feminine, yet not. Yes.
Guinevere "Gwen" is cool but kind of counter-intuitive. Unless it's written 'Guin' (which looks bad) it's gonna look a little odd written down, if not spoken.As a first name on it's own, however, I don't like it. I find it too trendy-minimalist, like Brynn, Ava, Penn, Ella etc. I think it's strictly a nickname.Combos: I used Gwendolen, but I'm moving towards Gwendolyn and that could work too. Gwen as a nn for all combos. First set I used your PNL (hope that's okay), second I used my own random suggestions.Gwendolen Ada
