It can be spelled both ways, but Logan is more of a common spelling for boys.

Everyone will think it's pronounced like logic (lodgen?).

Logan is ok, Logen is ugly. It's a boys name but sounds quite unisex, along the same lines as Rowan.

It's a bad spelling of a boys name, or a surname.

Sounds soooooo chavvy to me.. Sorry!

Only if it's a surname that's in your family already. And I have a (boy) Logan but won't be piercing his ears or putting him in hotpants any time soon . Unless he wants to of course (I know you mean a girl tsc but the thought made me laugh)

If you spell it Logen then the pronounciation would be different. It would be low Jen. Which is actually nicer imo.

But Logan is a bit new as it is without changing the spelling.

What about Eloise Imogen with LoGen as a nn? I bet you hate that though! OUr tastes are probably different.

lidofabiro · 12/06/2010 16:52

I think of it as a boys' name and prefer the spelling Logan.

Other ideas starting with Lo or ending with gan.....

Megan
Lois
Louise
Lorna
Lorianna
Lorraine

I knew a Loghann in the US (parents trying very hard to be Irish). They pronounced it Logan. I think of Logan Airport in Boston when I hear this name -- funny enough, Loghann's dad was a pilot.

OkieCokie · 12/06/2010 20:59

I don't like it, it's a but chavvy

OkieCokie · 12/06/2010 20:59

Oh, but if it is a middle name then it doesn't really matter too much, I guess it depends on the first name?

Might well be an official spelling but looks like a mistake and consequently makes you look a bit dumb sorry.

eh?? no way. so awful for a girl and not my cup of tea for boy either. sorry

shockers · 12/06/2010 21:42

I know of a Logan... a boy, but he has a Scandinavian surname and it kind of goes.

dizzydixies · 12/06/2010 23:59

not a fan sorry and I don't mind boys names on girls - i just don't like Logan and every second boy here seems to be called it

Ronaldinhio · 13/06/2010 00:12

made up name?

venusonarockbun · 13/06/2010 00:29

Yep -made up and silly spelling. Sorry.
