Pryderi

The son of Pwyll and Rhiannon in Welsh mythology, Pryderi (which means "care; worry" in Welsh) is a central figure of the Mabinogi. Kidnapped by a mysterious beast as a baby, he is raised by another family before being reunited with his parents as a young man, eventually succeeding his father as Lord of Dyfed. He is killed by the magician Gwydion in single combat. American author Lloyd Alexander used the name for a character in his "Chronicles of Prydain" series, based on Welsh mythology.

Pronounced pruh-DER-ee.
