Dyffryn Ogwen → Ogwen Valley – WP:COMMONNAME, appears Ogwen Valley is used more in English over the Welsh version "Dyffryn Ogwen". Ngrams shows Ogwen Valley is the more common form, while I find more sources using it too. Furthermore, some using "Dyffryn Ogwen" specify an area rather than a valley (the subject here), unless it should be like Nantlle Valley, described as an area. General results lean 75k OV vs 30k DO, and on Google News 115 OV vs 15 DO.

OV (15) – National Trust, local mountain rescue, Daily Post[1], BBC[2], The Telegraph, Liverpool Echo([3])[4], BMC, NYPost, NZHerald, Gloucestershire Live, Manchester EN, WalesOnline[5], ITV, Welsh Gov News, Sky.

Currently the national park uses just "Ogwen valley".[6]

DO (7) – local enterprise, Cambrian News; area–; Daily Post, BBC[7], North Wales Chronicle, Herald.Wales, Council

Mixed – community website (uses DO in website name, but OV in English text)

The sole (external) link on the article is from an organisation using "Ogwen Valley". Diolch DankJae 21:04, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
