Evan James or Rowan James

Surname is 2 syllables and begins with T.

James for middle name is a definite as has family connections, just so undecided on first name.

Evan = Evian and Evie And Evelyn
Rowan = Rosie and Rowena.

Favourite is James.

Rowan. Really don't like Evan. It's plump.

JosieB68 · 08/11/2020 16:02

Evan

SilverOtter · 08/11/2020 16:10

Rowan! It's a beautiful name

Ltay2 · 08/11/2020 16:21

Definitely not having James as a first name, so really only between Rowan and Evan!

I'm swaying more towards Rowan (seem to change my mind daily at the moment!) Evan has always been OH's favourite, it's a name he's had in mind even before we started TTC that obviously he's never told me about until we started talking names. At first I was very against as it just didn't sound right to me but it's since grown on me slightly, although I still don't LOVE it. I think Rowan is less harsh sounding than Evan.

Evan. It's gorgeous.
I prefer Rowan for a girl. I know so many little boy Rohan and Romans it seems a bit dull to me.

FraterculaArctica · 08/11/2020 16:49

Rowan!

FelicityPike · 08/11/2020 16:50

Evan.
Personally I think Rowan is more a girls name.

mangothoughts · 08/11/2020 16:57

Rowan or Roman
Not keen on Evan.

midsomermurderess · 08/11/2020 16:59

Evan turns in to Evie, Evian and Evelyn? In what universe? Anyway, I go with Evan too.

BikeRunSki · 08/11/2020 17:00

Rowan

MikeUniformMike · 08/11/2020 17:08

I only know one Evan and he's tall and lean. Plump? No.

pilates · 08/11/2020 17:32

Evan James

Lobsterquadrille2 · 08/11/2020 17:37

I like both but Evan has a stronger, more definite sound. Evan James works really well.

ColdCottage · 08/11/2020 17:39

Rowan. Evan makes me think of the film Evan Almighty

formerbabe · 08/11/2020 17:42

Both nice but I slightly prefer Evan

Viviennemary · 08/11/2020 17:44

I thought Rowan was a girls name.
