[Loch-Ruadh] Patronyms

[erinn holloway]

I'm a little confused about Welsh patronyms.

I know my boys would use their father's given name and
grandfather's given name. But, for a woman would I
continue to use my father's given name or would I 
take my husband's after I am married?
Erinn

P.S.

The boys have picked out their names.
My oldest is Robyn ap Thomas ap Jerrel
My middle is Jenkin ap Thomas ap Jerrel
My youngest is David (boring but he chose it from
list) ap Thomas ap Jerrel


I think mine would be Emma vert Robert ap Cletus

Emma (Erinn)

Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.
Albert Einstein
