Olwenn

Olwenn originates in Welsh. The meaning of Olwenn is 'white footprint'. It may come directly from the Welsh myth Culhwch and Olwen. Culhwch wants Olwenn's hand in marriage, but if she marries, her father, the giant Ysbaddaden, will die. Culhwch completes a series of challenges before he can marry Olwen. He meets the challenges, the giant dies, and Culhwch marries Olwen. In the myth, little white flowers spring up in her footprints while she walks (white path). It has two components; 'Ol', which means 'footprint', and 'Gwen', which means 'white'. There are several famous people named Olwenn (or Olwen), including Lady Olwen Carey Evans DBE, daughter of previous British Prime Minister David Lloyd, Sally Olwen Clark – also known as Petula Clark, a famous British singer and actress, Olwen Wymark, an American playwright and author, and Olwen Burton, an American physicist, and scientist. As far as Welsh names go, Olwenn is easy enough for non-Welsh speakers to learn to say quickly.

Lucky

Olwenn lucky number is 2.

Within numerology, the 2 vibration assumes the role of the mediator, creating harmony by bringing together dissonant forces through compassion, empathy, and kindness. 2 is linked to psychic abilities and intuition, and if this number appears as a Life Path or Destiny Number, the individual will be astute to subtle energy shifts and emotional nuances. Because 2 is so sensitive, it is very conflict-averse, and can end up feeling under-appreciated or unacknowledged. 2 must avoid seeking external validation and, instead, realize that perfect equilibrium needed already exists within.
