[Opinions] Re: Rowan
in reply to a message by mirfak
Rowan is not popular where I live, but it is not unheard of, either. I know of two, a man and a toddler girl. I don't envision it becoming super popular, but it might rise a bit. I can't think of a comparison, I'll edit later if I can.
I suppose I first heard it when the "Mr. Bean" movies were big in the 90's. It is the title actor's first name, I recall. The first time I heard it in real life I was in my mid twenties, it was a man's name then as well.
I prefer Rowan on a boy, but I don't mind it on a girl. It's very like the similar Robin to me in that sense.
I do like it, very much.
