Have you made your point TMMS?

belgo · 07/09/2008 10:35

Just been googling (obviously am very bored this sunday!) and it seems that Rowan is originally for a boy, but can also be used for a girl.

Prefer Rowena for a girl anyway.

tiggerlovestobounce · 07/09/2008 10:35

Oh well, I stand corrected

I do know a woman called Rowan, and it suits her well.

Bumperlicious · 07/09/2008 10:41

Really like it.

claudib · 07/09/2008 10:42

Yes sorry i should have clarified. we were only considering it for a girl.
i was just wondering if people liked it..?

Friends have Rowan for a girl but they were going to ue it if she was a boy.
I like it better for a girl I think its the Mr Bean thing.

MrsJohnCusack · 07/09/2008 10:50

lolololol

wondered why this had so many answers!
I knew a girl called Rowan and I love it! and my niece is called ROwena and I love that too.

one of my best freinds has a little girl called Rowan. I like it, it's unusual without ponce!

filthymindedvixen · 07/09/2008 11:01

I love it and if dsses had been girls, one would have been called Rowan. It's a tree FFS, how can it be male or female?
Rowena is a cop out.

There is a little girl called Rowan in the Whicker Man and that's where I go the idea from.
I didn't want to call my boy Rowan though I know boys called Rowan and it suits them beautifully.
