hello! we have settled down to 2 potential names for our baby girl, rowan and romy, and we basically just want some outsiders opinions so please vote and tell us what you think. or if you have any other similar great names (especially r names) we would also love to hear those xx

I love Rowan and I hate Romy :-)

I love Rowan for a girl

Rowan

DD is named Rowan, I love her name.

Rowan

Can't stand Romy. Sounds like you can't pronounce Rosemary.

I've always loved Rowan. Romy just sounds and looks a bit weird

I have a Rowan! So I'm biased. Never regretted her name and she's now taller than me

Romilly

Same

Romy is just.. nothing

Rowan is nice.
I prefer Rowena

I prefer Rowan! You could always use Romy as a pet name. Also like Rowena

Rowan. To me, Romy is a makey-uppy name.

Rowan is pure class.
Romy is "...And Michelle's High School Reunion."

Rowan is nice. It's a tree.

Romy is... I don't know; just makes me think "roomy" and spacious.

Boris Johnson's daughter is Romy. That would be enough for me 🤢

My DD is Romy I think it is a beautiful name we pronounce it Rom-ee. Rowan is also lovely.

DD has a friend called Rowan. It's a beautiful name. I

I’ve only known male Rowans and Romy feels as though it should be short for something. Is it R names you’re drawn to?

Rowena
Romilly
Rosalind
Romilda
Rosita

Rowan by a mile,
Romy sounds made up, I've no idea what it's roots are but it makes me think of Romany Gypsies or Rome.

I love them both!

Also like the Romilly and Rosalind suggestions. Also Rose.

Rowan is a man’s name — see Rowan Atkinson, fromer archbish Rowan Williams.
Romy is nice, definitely not made up, slightly European. eg Romy Schneider , actress.

I thought Roman was a boys name. I like Romy though.

I seem to be in the minority but always loved Romy. Love the Ro, love the my. What’s not to like??

What about Remi, it's similar to Romy.
