Carys
Carys is a Welsh feminine given name, formed from the stem of the Welsh m word caru, "to love" (cf. third person câr "beloved friend" or "precious"), and the suffix -ys, found in such names as Dilys, Gladys, Glenys and Nerys.
This is comparable to the similar name Cheryl which like Carys also appeared circa 1900 and is a combination of Cherie (The French form of Cara which means "precious" in Latin and is cognate to Welsh "câr") and the +yl suffix common in trendy early 20th century names such as Meryl and Beryl.
Famous bearers of the name include:
Carys Bannister (1935–2010), British neurosurgeon
Carys Hawkins (born 1988), Welsh-born Australian football player
Carys Parry (born 1981), Welsh hammer thrower
Carys Phillips (born 1992), Welsh rugby union player
Carys Zeta Douglas (born 2003), daughter of Welsh actress Catherine Zeta-Jones and American actor Michael Douglas
