Rowan (m)
Rowan because it is slightly softer and I love the trees. Rowan does sound a bit like rowing but I have gotten past the association for the most part and decided it isn't negative.Ronan is nice but I have mixed feelings. My first thought is Ronin like the masterless samurai, which is a cool association but maybe too cool like naming a kid Katana. I want to add that I used to watch the anime Ronin Warriors when I was very young and I watch a lot of anime so this is a strong association for me.Also Ronan the Accuser in Guardians of the Galaxy is a villain.Lastly it makes me think of roan horses.Overall Ronan just feels a bit more macho than I like but it's a very cool name. Even though it doesn't make me think of seals I like the meaning of the name. I also like that it isn't very common in the US.
