    Thanks!  I'm not sure what we would do for the spelling yet.

    I love this name! But I agree with the previous poster on liking the traditional welsh spelling more.

    I'm not voting but MIL knows someone with that name and it just suits her.  But personally I don't like it.

    I like the name but not the spelling. Interestingly, I don't think I like ANY of the spellings of this name. But I love how it sounds!

    I much prefer the traditional Welsh Guinevere

    I just don't care for Gwenevere for some reason. It looks odd to me.

    Ditto.  I voted no because of the spelling, but I love Guinevere with the NN Gwen!

    I voted 'yes' on the name, but would spell it the traditional way for sure.

    My cousin named her daughter this. I like it, but will repeat everyone else saying to spell it the traditional way.

    Good name, bad spelling.  You can still use Gwen as a nickname while spelling it correctly.

    This has always been a GP for me because I don't like the other Gwen names.  I say do it.

    Agree with this.  I didn't vote because I didn't like the spelling, but I love Guinevere.

    This. I like the name but not the spelling you posted. I still voted that I liked it, though, because I do like the sound of Guinevere and the nn Gwen.

    Hate the spelling. Also, cannot even kind of imagine her EVER using her full name, so unless you can, why not just name her Gwen?

    Love the name but the spelling Gwenevere looks weird to me.  I much prefer Guinevere.

    Growing up I really liked this name with that spelling.  I thought it should be spelled the way it was said (I had lots of bad taste then).  I've since learned that Guin and Gwen aren't really supposed to be pronounced the same so I'm a fan of the traditional spelling. I also really like other Gwen names since I'd prefer that as a nn.  Too bad DH vetoes every time.
