Glyndwr

US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: Welsh

Meaning: Valley water

This Welsh name not only means "valley water" but also has a melodic, lyrical sound, not unlike a gentle stream. Glyndwr was the last name of Owain Glyndwr, a medieval Welsh patriot who led Wales' last major attempt to escape English rule with a long war of independence. He formed the first Welsh parliament, and after his death, he became a legendary hero waiting for the call to return and free his people. With a figure like this to look up to, baby can be encouraged to fight for what they believe in and not give up.
