haha...that sounds like some crazy trips right there
I think "cynwyd" would be a version of "before," or "past..." So, "Bala Cynwyd," might either mean "before the river" or "past the river." Then, again, neither of those two guesses might be right.
Bala is derived from the Celtic “Belago” meaning the efflux of a river from a lake. Bala, Wales is situated at the northeast tip of Llyn (Lake) Tegid where the water flows into a nearby stream.
Cynwyd is a personal name of a Welsh saint/confessor who was the son of Cynfelyn ab Arthwys, of the race of Coel Goedebog. Cynwyd was one of the “Men of the North,” who were all warriors, and was Saint of Babgor Catwg at Llancarfan, Wales.
