Hello, I'm looking for middle name suggestions for a girl with the first name Owen. I appreciate any help.

I was happy to meet a little girl named Lorelei the other day. I love it and, Alana, Lianna, Miranda, Briallen and Elaine. Thank you for introducing Briallen to me. I've never heard it before.

Not a fan of Owen for a girl.

It's ranked at #26 as a boy's name. It could be aggravating for a girl.

It's all boy in my opinion.

It's great that you're open to new name ideas! There are many great combos listed here. Owen Anneliese and Owen Annemarie have a beautiful flow, and Cecilia and Eliza are lovely variations of family names. I'm glad to see someone else likes Enid! Thank you!

Owen Bethany could be a nod to the family name Elizabeth, although Bethany isn't a diminutive of Elizabeth. Aliyah, Grace and Elaine sound nice with Owen too

Morwenna is an interesting name. The more I say it, the more I like it. Even though it repeats the "when" sound, it somehow works!

What a daring idea! I suppose Owen isn't far off from Rowan. I sort of like Owen on a girl. It feels heavy and somber in a satisfying way, like there's a story there. I like it much better than James or Wyatt for a girl.I tried it with a few ideas and they all started to sound like phrases (Owen Amanda, Owen April, Owen Annabel, Owen Isabelle, Owen Amelia) so that's the trick with Owen as a name I suppose.Owen Emily
Owen Liliana
Owen Alyssa
Owen Elena
Owen Josephine
Owen Sophie
Owen Natalie
Owen Anna
Owen Cordelia
Owen Gabrielle
Owen Juliet
Owen Ophelia

Rowan is wonderful too! You're right! There are a lot of tricky middle names. I never thought of Isabelle being a troublesome middle name. Owen is a belle, makes me think of the Deep South! I enjoy Emily, Natalie, Cordelia and Ophelia (two O initials is unusual!) Thank you for the suggestions!

Three of the names honor relatives - Elizabeth, Marie, and Alannah! I love the name Rosalie, and now I love Rosaleen too. I hadn't considered it before, but it's gorgeous! I wish Bedelia didn't have the Amelia Bedelia reference because it's great too! Maeve, Muriel, and Genevieve are gems I've liked for a long time. Thank you!

Of course!
may I ask what inspired the idea of Owen as a girl name? I would have never thought of it...but the more I do, it's lovely! Wendy could be an adorable nickname.

Actually, I have exciting news! I'm going to be a grandmother and I'm helping my daughter decide on a middle name for her baby. She has liked Owen for so long, she can't remember her inspiration. She didn't realize it was so high on the boy list (#27) but I think she's pretty much set on Owen. We'll see! I agree Wendy is adorable. Winnie would work too!

Congratulations!! That is so exciting! Prayers for you and your daughter!
As for Owen being high on the male charts, it's nothing to worry about, trust me. I've lived my whole life with a "boy" name, and it has been nothing but a good experience. Owen sounds unisex anyway- it's close to Rowen. Owen is going to be so precious!
Yes Winnie would work as well, I even know a girl named Bronwen that goes by Winnie.
Congrats!
