Tree names - what do you think?

So my eldest is Rowan (boy), and bump is a few months away from arrival.

If bump is female, we’re fairly set on Elowen (pronounced Eh-LOW-en), maybe Holly as a back up. Could be swayed to other ideas.

If bump is male, we’re undecided. Maybe Lennox (and Lex for short). Although I do like Lachlan (not tree themed but still nice). Some version of Ash is another option, although I think Ashley is a girls name usually these days?

Any other ideas? We’ve looked at many tree name lists, but I want to hear opinions/preferences.

My imaginary children's names were always Rowan and Sorrel.
