c w,
I am also not a Welsh speaker sorry, I am no help. 
Trystan and D ap D would know, Amy K probably would too.
Haf is a lovely name,  My daughter chose Ffion for her chistening name herself so I love it.
And if I have another daughter I want to call her Seren, it such a beautiful name. 
Kazza.

sorry kazza
thought out of my own shame that you might be a Welsh speaker, but hope I did not offend you.
My Seren has the right name as she is quite the little "Star", if you know what I mean.
I gave her that name as just before she was due, my husband and myself travelled up to Scarborough for a short break. Whilst we were there I thought I may be going into labour. Not wanting my child to be born in England (my apologises to the English here!) I wanted to return home.
Luckily it was a false alarm! However, when she was born I had a great urge to give her a Welsh name.

c w,
No offence taken, I would love to be a Welsh speaker, but being born and brought up in Cardiff I had no chance.
Seren has been a favourite name of mine since meeting a beautiful little girl of the name, I am a star you know, she announced. I replied that I could see she was, No, in a special way she said, I am a real Welsh star - Seren, she said. It was even cuter as she had no front teeth.

Hi c w,
I was going to take offense at your comments about not wanting your child born in England - being English only - but having learned this week about my Scottish, Isle of Man and maybe even a bit of Welsh in me- I won't bother
Cheers
Keith

Keith,
I am sure c w was only concerned that the child's eligibility to play for Wales not be effected.

hi Keith,
Glad you did not take offence, and congratulations on having a little Welsh in your genes. I must confess though, on my father's side I only have to go back one generation and it's
all English!

hi kazza
Sorry to stray from "the lighter side" but I noticed that a few of your surname interests I have noticed whilst looking for my family in West Somerset. Is this the area of Somerset Your people originate?
