There have been less than 50 people born in England and Wales ever with the name Aderyn: only two of them were boys, despite it being a masculine noun. I've never met or heard of one either, and it seems an odd choice to me too & more the kind of name a foreigner or someone writing a faux-Celtic fantasy novel would use than your average Welsh person. But it does have a nice sound, & is probably fine as a name in places where it's not a common word.

There have been quite a few Bronwyns here though (mostly in South Wales, where there are less Welsh speakers).

Hartwin looks like an English surname, although surprisingly isn't. I think I'd like it better if it was.
