Have You Seen Me?! - Comment from my Mom...

Thanks for all the great comment on my last post!! But I felt the need to post one comment in particular... the one from my mom!! HA! Wanna know how and where I got my name; this is what she said...

To all who commented on Lyryn's name - I'm the mom who made it up! I liked the name "Lauren" but wanted it to be more different. My family has a lot of Welsh names (Brother Bryn and Rhys, Uncle Aylwyn, Aunt Onwyl, and my Dad - Dafydd (which is David in Welsh). I decided to take Lauren and make it Welsh sounding. Hence.... Lyryn! My pediatrician told me I was "cruel" to name her that. I think it is
beautiful and I have always thought that it suits her.

Thanks Mommy! ;)

I just saw your note on my blog - thank you for the comment. I'm looking forward to following you too. THe first thing I thought of was, hmm I wonder if her name is pronouced like "Lauren" We're thinking Welsh names too for our baby so I love what your Mom did with your name, SO unique :-)

Thanks for stopping by my blog!! I grew up with a pretty unique name too, and while it isn't unheard of to find girls named Cameron, I have always loved that my mom made it a little different by spelling mine with a K....even if it means having to spell my name every.single.time!!!

Courtney said...

I do like the twist she put on your name! Very cool!

Hi! Thanks for the sweet comment on my blog and for following me! I love meeting new bloggers and finding new blogs to read!

I like the spelling of your name and I am in a similar boat--my name is pronounced "Ashley" but spelled "Aishlea"..... No one forgets I am the girl with the weird spelling! :)
