BRONWYN  

Gender: F
Origin: Welsh
Meaning: "fair bosomed"

One of the loveliest of the Welsh names, striking the perfect balance between being familiar and unusual. In Wales, the female spelling is always Bronwen, but Americans usually see a "y" as adding femininity.

Bronwyn is being discussed in our message boards:

• A brother or sister for little Jack or Olivia
• I would love to know what you think
• Needing serious help on a name!
• Names somehow related to Whitney?
• baby no name. HELP! 3 weeks left to choose.
