Meaning: Fair; Blessed; White circle

Gwendalyn is a girl’s name of Welsh origin. An alternative to Gwendolyn, it means “fair,” “blessed,” and “white circle.” The last of its meanings might be in reference to an ancient moon goddess who appears in both Welsh and English legends. In one, she’s a fairy with whom King Arthur falls in love, and in the other, she’s the wife of the wizard Merlin.
