What titles did early Welsh rulers hold?

This is wrong. Wales for the most part was feudal so there was only ever 1 king never mind Supreme King.
A royal welsh hierachy would look more like this:
- Brenin - King (There wasn't really any kings for the most part)
- Tywysog / Tywysoges - Prince / Princess
- Arglwydd - Lord
- Maer - Mayor
It wasn't really much more than that as things like duke and baron were mostly English.
When Tyler said that there were multiple spellings for king, it is not true. Those are just pronunciations for the word. As a Welsh speaker I can assure you of this. Not to mention other misspellings in the other titles.
The Welsh peerage system was really small before England invaded.

Brenhin Pennaf - the high king, supreme king
Brenhin - king
Pendeuic - duke
Arglwyd - baron or landed lord
Canghellor - governor
Deleyr - mayor or count, a local chief
Hyneyw - a royal counselor
Tywysog - a noble
Note that all of these words have lots of different spellings. A king may be "brennin" or "brennan" or "vrenhin" or many other spellings.
