Gweneth Origin and Meaning

The name Gweneth is a girl's name.

Gweneth is a feminine name of Welsh origin, considered a variant spelling of Gwyneth. The name derives from the Welsh word 'gwen' meaning 'white', 'blessed', or 'fair'. This beautiful Celtic name carries connotations of purity, brightness, and fairness. While less common than the spelling Gwyneth (which gained visibility through actress Gwyneth Paltrow), Gweneth offers a slightly different visual aesthetic while maintaining the same melodic pronunciation. The name has a graceful, somewhat aristocratic feel that connects to Welsh heritage and traditions. Though never reaching top popularity charts, Gweneth has maintained steady appreciation among parents drawn to names with Celtic roots. Its relative rarity makes it distinctive without being difficult to pronounce or remember.
