Glain = Welsh word for jewel. Very unusual name.
Buddug = Welsh form of Boudica / Boadicea
Nici - Welsh short form of Nicola
Lloer - Welsh word for moon. I've never seen this before as a name, and it doesn't show up in any records as having been used before - a real 'modern Welsh name'!
Arawn - king of the underworld in Welsh mythology. This is a pretty unusual name, too. Original parents! (eta: wow, Arawn is in the database.)*neither part of this is Welsh.

Gwilym? Wow, cool. Never heard of that one before. Too bad you don't know the middle name, I'd be curious.
