title="Welsh language">Welsh language</a> and when multiple forms are used, although some place-names in <a href="/wiki/English_language" title="English language">English</a> were also recommended to be matched with the Welsh. The list contains almost 3,500 entries,<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> as of November 2023. </p><p>The list is based on recommendations provided by the Place-names Standardisation Panel, convened by the Commissioner, for expert advice on the standardisation of Welsh place-names. The panel bases their decisions on a set of guidelines (currently dating to June 2023), specific to <a href="/wiki/Lists_of_places_in_Wales" title="Lists of places in Wales">Welsh settlement</a> names (such as those of villages, <a href="/wiki/List_of_towns_in_Wales" title="List of towns in Wales">towns</a>, and <a href="/wiki/List_of_cities_in_Wales" title="List of cities in Wales">cities</a>) and topographic features (such as <a href="/wiki/List_of_lakes_of_Wales" title="List of lakes of Wales">lakes</a>, mountains and <a href="/wiki/List_of_rivers_of_Wales" title="List of rivers of Wales">rivers</a>). The panel does not cover house or building names, although similar principles could be applied to them or on names for new developments (for which the Commissioner offers their own advice to <a href="/wiki/Local_authorities_in_Wales" class="mw-redirect" title="Local authorities in Wales">local authorities</a> and <a href="/wiki/Housing_and_construction_in_Wales" title="Housing and construction in Wales">housing developers</a>).<sup id="cite_ref-:2_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:2-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The panel may also have used additional guidelines.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The list was first published in 2018,<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and took years to put together.<sup id="cite_ref-:3_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:3-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Upon creation, these lists were published under the <a href="/wiki/Open_Government_Licence" title="Open Government Licence">Open Government Licence</a> 3.0.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The list is merely a recommendation towards local authorities, which they retain the power whether to implement the recommendations.

However, the panel decided to recommend the use of a <a href="/wiki/Circumflex" title="Circumflex">circumflex</a> (long sign) for some names, even if not a Welsh orthographical standard, to "avoid ambiguity and ensure correct pronunciation".<sup id="cite_ref-:0_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The panel also considered closely following the "<i>Rhestr o Enwau Lleoedd</i>/<i>A Gazetteer of Welsh Place-Names"</i> by <a href="/wiki/Elwyn_Davies" title="Elwyn Davies">Elwyn Davies</a>, as well as previous recommendations of the <a href="/wiki/Welsh_Language_Board" title="Welsh Language Board">Welsh Language Board</a>'s place-names standardisation team. However, the panel recognised that some entries, since 1967, in the Gazetteer may now be out of date or not representative of the modern "linguistic climate", therefore some place-names may not have to be the same as in the Gazetteer.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The guidance also explained when the panel is to recommend the use of hyphens, an <a href="/wiki/Apostrophe" title="Apostrophe">apostrophe</a> or <a href="/wiki/Diaeresis_(diacritic)" title="Diaeresis (diacritic)">diaeresis</a>, one vs. two words, the use of the Welsh <a href="/wiki/Definite_article" class="mw-redirect" title="Definite article">definite article</a> (y/yr/'r), and its relation to emphasis, place-names named after persons, creating new names, recognising local dialects, and dual forms (closely related English and Welsh versions). For English place-names in Wales referring to saints, the guideline also recommends standardisation, for example, <a href="/wiki/St_Davids" title="St Davids">St Davids</a>. The panel recommends the omission of the full stop (St.) and the apostrophe (David's), creating the standard form as "St Davids" rather than "St. David's".<sup id="cite_ref-:0_3-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The guidelines recommend the standardisation of topographical names that are <a href="/wiki/Tautology_(language)" title="Tautology (language)">tautologous</a>, where a name repeats an element. For example, "Llyn" (meaning 'lake') may appear within names, such as <a href="/wiki/Glaslyn" title="Glaslyn">Glaslyn</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>a<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> so recommends avoiding <i>Llyn Glaslyn</i>. However, if the tautologous name is commonly used or used to distinguish between other features (for example, between a river and a lake, <i>Llyn Hiraethlyn</i> and <i>Afon Hiraethlyn</i>), then the panel is to respect its use and maintain the name.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_3-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The guideline also recommended use of a single form in both Welsh and English, in place of any existing dual forms (where the names in either language are very similar), if there is only a minor difference of one or two letters, with preference being given to the Welsh form of the name. The guidance was based on the recommendations of the <a href="/wiki/Ordnance_Survey" title="Ordnance Survey">Ordnance Survey</a><sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and highway authorities.

For example, using "Croeso, Caernarfon" rather than "Croeso i Gaernarfon", and "Croeso, Y Bala" rather than "Croeso i’r Bala", so one form of the place-name is only needed on the sign. The Commissioner also suggested expanding the welcome phrasing from "Croeso i" (Welcome to) to something longer like "Croeso i bentref" (Welcome to the village of) as another alternative, that would also ensure only "Caernarfon" or "Y Bala" is needed, rather than "Gaernarfon/Caernarfon" and "... i'r Bala" and "Y Bala".<sup id="cite_ref-:2_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:2-2"><span
