HelpRe: Rowan
in reply to a message by mirfak
My guess is it could get into the top 100 eventually...it sounds almost trendy to me.
I think of Rowan as a unisex, nature-lovers' version of Roman or Ronan. Sort of in the way that Robin for a boy is a unisex, nature-lovers' version of Robert. Also the fact that it sounds like a surname might add to the appeal.
The first time I heard it used was for a boy, and I prefer it for a boy, although in general it doesn't seem gendered to me...I think because while the sound is similar to a lot of boys' names, I'm also more used to seeing plant/nature names for girls.
It's not one of my favorites, but I don't dislike it. Mostly it just reminds me of rowan berries.
