Just curious - your thoughts on Rowan for a girl ? (m)



  • I LOVE IT!
  • It' s ok
  • I like it better for a boy.
  • I'd rather call her Stinky!

I originally saw this as a boys name, but I know it's been used for girls, too. I'm not a big fan, but yet there's something about it that is growing on me...I believe there is a tree called a rowan tree (?)-- and that part appeals to me. I don't partically care for the sound of the name, and it reminds me of a college in NJ with that name, but there's something about it that is oddly appealing.


Just another thought about a girls name that's similar: what do you think of Rowena?


Best of luck to you!

Funny, but 6 months ago I would have said eewww. But for some reason this name has really grown on me recently and now I really really like it for a girl.
