Synopsis

Welsh Names for Your Children, the most comprehensive guide to Welsh names ever compiled, comprises over 2,000 Welsh first names. This second edition contains over 250 additional names. Welsh is a Celtic language and is spoken by over a million people worldwide. It is the oldest living language in Europe and has a rich, diverse and distinctive collection of personal names, of which several, such as Dylan, Megan, and Arthur, are internationally recognized. More and more parents are making a positive choice and giving a Welsh name to their children and in doing so handing down their Welsh heritage to the next generation. This book is the complete guide to making that choice. The names are arranged according to the English alphabet and, in many instances, an explanation of the name's meaning and a brief word about illustrious bearers of the name are also provided. For those not familiar with the Welsh language the book also has a section on pronunciation.
