So much so that I even added it to my Favorite Female and Favorite Male Names List on the right side of this blog* but when I think of Rhydwyn I think of a noblewoman anywhere between 900’s-1400’s. Lady Rhydwyn *has a nice ring to it*, who maybe against her father’s advice dons armor in a great battle and pretends to be a man but later admits to her deceit. I have heard of certain women in history who did just that. There was a noblewoman named Petronilla de Grandmesnil, Countess of Leicester, in the 1100’s who often donned armor and accompanied her husband on military campaigns. There were often others but I can’t remember their names. <br /><br />As for Rhydwyn on a man character, I can see a strong warrior type in armor. But I also think it would be an amazing name in modern times but also in the future on maybe another world, but that’s just me, LOL! <br /><br />I know very little about the Welsh naming style but lately I have really come to like the meanings, spellings, and pronunciations of Welsh names, Irish names, Scottish names, and Old English names. I just think they are really cool and really pretty or really strong depending on the gender. <br /><br />I am glad you like this name. <br />Cassidyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14289821930109632241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335579424504291008.post-85737869198626297452013-11-26T17:42:37.103-06:002013-11-26T17:42:37.103-06:00Hahaha, this name is SO Welsh! It has no vowels......Hahaha, this name is SO Welsh! It has no vowels... (But then again, in Welsh, y and w are vowels). <br /><br />I really like it! It has a bronze hue to it, like a warrior in bronze armor. Drowsy Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08049138138418485245noreply@blogger.com
