Gwendolen
Gwendolen () is a feminine given name, in general use only since the 19th century. It has come to be the standard English form of Latin '' Guendoloena'', which was first used by Geoffrey of Monmouth as the name of a legendary British queen in his ''History of the Kings of Britain'' (). He reused the name in his '' Life of Merlin'' (c. 1150) for a different character, the wife of the titular magician " Merlinus", a counsellor to King Arthur; the metre shows that Geoffrey pronounced it as a pentasyllable, ''Guĕndŏlŏēnă'', with the "gu" pronounced . Dr. Arthur Hutson suggests that "Guendoloena" arose from a misreading of the old Welsh masculine name '' Guendoleu''; Geoffrey may have mistaken the final ''U'' for an ''N'', then Latinized *''Guendolen'' as a feminine name to arrive at Guendoloena. In the ''Vita Merlini'', however, Geoffrey Latinizes the masculine name of Gwenddoleu ap Ceidio as ''Guennolous''. Spelled ''Gwendoloena'', the name reoccurs in the anonymous Latin rom ...
