If Naill was a welsh name it wouldnt be pronounced nile, it would be nee-a- and then that welsh sound that only welsh people can make!

 

[Tonks]

We're trying to think of welsh names which people can actually pronounce as there's nothing worse than spending your life teaching people how to say your name.

Was just wondering if any of you non-welshies have ever heard of the name "Owain" and if you think you could pronounce it! Thanks

Madog...this is my brothers name, we call him Max for short. I can't remember the meaning but i think it says something about being the welshmans son.

You pronounce it like this.. Mad-oug.

.... RUSK! SERIOUSLY! RUSK!?!?!?! Sorry if anyone has a child named rusk but ...

I know it's not Welsh..but it is seriously odd...
