HelpRe: Llewellyn
in reply to a message by BabyNameAholic
Hi !!!
Llewellyn?
I have never thought about it.
It is very distant from my heritage but also I dislike it because there are better Welsh names imo.
As Italian I would pronounce it LAY-wel-leen.
I read that in this site the "ay" sound is a closed "e" like the French "é". If I'm right this is the sound for what I mean.
But I just read that the Welsh pronounciation is shə-WE-lin.
I generally dislike -lyn names and this one is by far too complex in my opinion.
