I love coming up with first and middle name combinations. Branwen is one of my all-time favorite names. But I find it hard to pair her with just the right name. Here are some attempts:
Branwen Abby
Branwen Aurelie
Branwen Edith
Branwen Eurydice
Branwen Jeannie
Faith Branwen
Edith Branwen
Ida Branwen
Lilia Branwen
Nicola Branwen

I've worked on this a little more. I think, for now anyway, I'm going with Branwen Patience. Patience is another name I love, love, love.
Some other names I am really loving today:
Katherine Iseult
Elizabeth Camilla
Liessa Elowen
Bridget Calliope
Phoebe Gwenllian
Rebecca Ann
Priscilla Jane
Sarai Elaina
Adela Temperance
Dacia Frances
Nadia Eilonwy
Emmeline Ingrid
Grace Cassiopeia
and last but not least
Maia Angharad
And a parting thought on Branwen. I'm having a hard time remaining committed to Branwen Patience. I looked at the list above again and thought Nicola Branwen looked so wonderful. Hmm. We'll see.
Robert Frost's poem "A Cliff Dwelling" reminds me of the people who must have lived here "Oh years ago--ten thousand years" and enjoyed the beauty and safety of a cliff. A place "to rest from his besetting fears". Welcome to mine.
In 2014 I featured a series of blog posts introducing you to 2,014 names. For the most part they were names that were brand new to me as well. Some names may be more familiar but I found the meaning or origin or some other aspect of the name made it worthy of inclusion here. You may love some of the names, you may hate some, but hopefully you enjoy learning about all of them.
