Some honest opinions on Rowan (pronounced Row-Uhn) would be great. Do you like it? What do you think of it as a girl’s name?

i like tree names and don't think of them as boys or girls , but then i'm an old hippy!

I know a girl Rowan and there is a brilliant female character called Rowan in Antonia Forest's school stories.

@NuffSaidSam I love nicknames too! I actually quite like Ro as a nn. Or RoRo, or Rori.

Row as in a boat is the correct way ay to pronounce it but it wouldn’t bother me if people got it wrong. I think both sound nice

Love it.

Only thing I don't like is that it doesn't have good nn potential and I do like a nickname.

She'll end up being called 'Row' unless you're really strict on full names only

I really like it. How are you pronouncing "row" - there are two pronunciations - row as in "row a boat", or row as in "argument".
