What a beautiful choice! It is a Welsh name and it is a modern form of Guinevere. Old French form of the Welsh name Gwenhwyfar, which is composed of the elements gwen meaning "fair, white" and hwyfar meaning "smooth". It is sometimes translated as "white shadow". In Arthurian legend she is the beautiful wife of King Arthur. Her betrayal of her husband with Mordred prompted the battle of Camlann, which led to the deaths of both Mordred and Arthur. Later versions of the legends tell of her adulterous affair with Sir Lancelot.
Other forms of the name are Gwenifer and Jennifer.
