Re: Welsh Name: Adenydd
>is Adenydd a legitimate Welsh name that has been used (and can be used)?No. As Claudia said, 'adenydd' = 'wings', it's never been used in Wales as a name as far as I know, and it doesn't show up in any records. There are quite a few of these 'Welsh names' lurking in baby-name databases that are never used as names in Wales, including several in here! - so it's always wise to check.◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄

Thank you! I guess I'll shelve this one in the "for fantasy names only" pile. :pDo you happen to know of any reliable (Welsh-based?) databases for names?
