I really like both names.

DD has the mn Rowan - I love it. Have had plenty of funny looks though.

Definitely go for it, if you are fairly thick skinned.

Claudia Rowan surname maybe?

Both names are lovely, but prefer Rowan for a boy, so I would go with Claudia.

I much prefer Rowan. Claudia sounds harsh to my ear.

Much prefer Claudia

I like Claudia but the only Rowans I know are boys.

I like both but Claudia is my favourite.

I don't like Claudia, especially if pronounced Claw-dia (I prefer the German Clowd-ia, with a long ow sound). Even if you don't mind the meaning, your dd may.

Rowan is a good unisex name, although I know more boys.

I love Claudia

I really like both of them

I love Rowan, but only know men/boys named it (not many- I still count it as a fairly unusual name)

Saying that, just remembered Rowan Pelling - a very stylish intelligent female editor. I think it would work for a woman too.

Claudia always makes me think of pampered cats. Not sure why.

I love the name Rowan - is DD's name! Did get asked to repeat it alot when she was a baby but only get compliments on it now. Don't care as I think it really suits her and like how it's slightly different.
