Did you mean to spell it as in the Welsh name? The usual spelling is
Llewellyn or Llewelyn
Someone asked about pronunciation. The 'll' sound doesn't exist in
English: it's an aspirated 'l'. Say an 'l' while hissing
out of one
side of your mouth, and you'll get a crude approximation of it.
Llewellyn: hlew - EHL - in
Llewelyn: hlew - EL - in
However, I have heard English speakers just say the 'll' as an
'l' and
not get the ew quite right, giving lou-ellen. That's probably the most
common pronunciation of it in the US.
