Happy Birthday Guinevere!!!
The Welsh form Gwenhwyfar, which seems to be cognate with the Irish name Findabair, can be translated as "The White Enchantress" or "The White Fay/Ghost". The name is spelled Guennuuar in Caradoc's Vita Gildae, while Gerald of Wales called her Wenneuereia. In the 15th century Middle Cornish play Bewnans Ke, she was called Gwynnever.
