Welsh House names

Not exactly MSE but any suggestions for some house names?

1st language Welsh, just bought property in England (had to move with job and couldn't get good enough wages at home :mad: to buy own place)


House is new build on an old windmill site a few nice fields around and on hill, no trees.

Was thinking Bryn Glas, i.e. but thought afterwads people may think it's after C'Mon midfield!

Don't want Ty Newydd or something that starts with Y, i.e. Y Dderwen Deg as a colleague used to have problems with utility companies with that one! :rotfl:

Also thinking Hafod Glas might be ok but not sure, any suggestions?

    My parents' house is Yr Hafod, and I think that's lovely.
    Not first language welsh here, so please excuse any mistakes.
    Ty Wyntog? Cae hyfred? Bryn hyfred? That's about as far as my welsh stretches I'm afraid. Good luck with it!

    My Welsh isn't extensive, so I can't think of anything else at the mo.
    Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before

    What about, simply, "Cartref"? :confused:

    "...also known as taking in the Spanish Cub Scout leader. (Cryptic) (5)"

     Thanks to MSE, I've seen Citizen Kane, 2001: A Space Odyssey and Serenity for FREE! :D
