Loving Cerys lately 
I was born in Wales and lived there for a few years but my family are not welsh. I live in the states now and wonder if it’s appropriate to use the name outside of Wales/UK. Some popular welsh names I can think of are Gwyneth, Gwendolyn, Owen, Megan, Rhys, Dylan, could Cerys work too?
Thanks!
I’m also not Welsh (nor born in Wales), so perhaps my take is not the strongest, but I definitely wouldn’t assume that a girl called [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] was certainly Welsh! Like you said, many Welsh names are quite popularised. It wouldn’t be necessarily head-turning to hear of a girl called [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] whose family isn’t Welsh blood.
I think [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] is such a gorgeous name! I adore it! I personally prefer the look of the [name_f]Carys[/name_f] and [name_f]Caris[/name_f] spellings, but they’re all darling. Such a sweet, fierce, yet warm name. Sounds like a name for a bold, sweet girl!
I love the name [name_f]Cerys[/name_f]. It doesn’t immediately strike me as Welsh. [name_f]Lovely[/name_f] name tbh
[name_f]Cerys[/name_f] is on my list! I don’t see why it can’t be used in the states
I think [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] is pretty straightforward! It’s lovely and had a wonderful meaning
I love [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] and love the spelling, but actual pronunciation might be too confusing, you’ll constantly have to correct people it’s pronounced [name_f]Keris[/name_f], not Seris.
It’s fine. [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] is sweet.
[name_f]Cerys[/name_f] is lovely! I live in [name_f]Canada[/name_f] and know a handful, none have had issues with pronunciations.
I love [name_f]Cerys[/name_f], it’s on my list. I’m in the UK though! I don’t think pronunciation will be an issue, it’s pretty straightforward. And I think it’s more than usable for you.
[name_f]Cerys[/name_f] seems like a perfectly usable name to me - though I am Welsh. It’s a pretty name. I do have a slight preference for [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] over [name_f]Carys[/name_f], but though I should put the latter out there for you to consider, since they are very similar.
I think it’s a beautiful name. I am also in [name_f]Canada[/name_f] , and don’t think it’s a problem , but a beautiful way to honour your roots !
I think it’s lovely!
I do think where I live (Atlantic Canada) the [name_f]Carys[/name_f] spelling would be easier to wear - although I know the difference, my brain still reads [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] as SAIR-iss sometimes.
[name_f]Cerys[/name_f] is gorgeous one of my closest friend sister has this name and I’ve always admired the name. [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] is beautiful and I love the meaning love. I do not think it would be inappropriate to use [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] outside the UK and I think she would travel well. [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] is pretty self explanatory to pronounce so I don’t think you’d find any issues with the name. [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] also definitely works with the names you’ve mentioned. I think [name_f]Cerys[/name_f] is stunning 
Thank you all for the reassurance
