Major congrats on the niece.
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

Er, i hate to note it, but Ceridwyn is - according to some sources - a hypothetical masculine form (of Ceridwen, a Welsh goddess, also known as Ceredwin, Cerridwen, Keridwen, etc). :)

(wyn and wen are respectively masculine and feminine endings for welsh names; apparently the use of Ceridwyn is confined to the US in late 20th C and not seen in Wales itself)

All of that minor curiousity aside, congrats are in order :D

"Wen?"  "Cerry?"

"Kerry", probably.

i've got an  inkling it's pronounced Kerr-a-win or Serr-e-win, or similar.

Yup, iirc it was a more based around Ireland and France, whereas Northern England and Germany etc spoke a dialect of Celtic which was older, since Gaelic had become slightly corrupted by Saxon and Norman influences, I think that's how it worked anyway :)

Actually, there's evidence that there were Celts in Eastern Germany as far back as the Roman Invasion, most of the country was Germanic, but not all. Either way, still a nice name, as a man who has a God-Daughter called Rhianon, I can say I quite like Gaellic names :)
