Rowan or Kit?

[FindTheLightSwitchDarren]

For a boy.

We are down to these two (more or less).

Kit would be Christopher on the bc, but we would introduce him to everyone as Kit until he is old enough to say whether he wants to use a different shortening / full name / completely unrelated nickname.

Other options are Samuel and Lewis. Middle name could be any of these names, or else Wilfred (family name).

Lewis Christopher Surname?

Kit. Great name

Just Kit nice and simple good solid name.

DH won't have Kit on bc.

That's fine. Use kit as nick name

Rowan Wilfred sounds wonderful.

Second option of your four choices.

Definitely Kit. Not meaning to offend anyone but I think it's a much stronger name than Rowan. I like short strong names (hence all 3 of mine have 4 letter names)

I like both names a lot, I think Kit is my favourite (just).

Christoph is great

Kit! Kit kit kit, I love it.
Rowan is more hippy unisex and the other names are v popular.

Kit

Rowan Christopher (Surname)

Rowan

Kit.
Rowan is a girls name.
Rowan Atkinson has a girls name.

No it's not, it's much more commonly used as a boys name

I like both names, both are on my list

It's a girls name, lately used for boys too. The opposite of Evelyn and Hilary I suppose.
It's a little flowering tree. Not very macho.

Christopher (Kit) Rowan

Kit

Most Rowans I know are boys. I'm Irish, so could use the Irish spelling (definitely a boy's name).

It's not particularly little and it's better known for having red berries.

The concept of macho is very very unappealing to me. I guess that's why Rowan appeals. Although I think Rowan is very strong sounding name

Also, if he is anything like DH, DD and me, he will not be macho (looking at least)! We're all tall, blonde, pale and small framed.

Christopher Samuel Sirname

Both are nice but I prefer Rowan

I do prefer Rohan to Rowan for a boy - if Rohan is the spelling you were thinking of. The Mr Bean association is too strong for me, so it puts me off Rowan. But I Iike Christopher/Kit much more.
