Hi hi,

We're expecting our little boy in 4 weeks.
We're happy with the name, but I'm still a bit unsure about how to spell it.
Which do you guys like better ?????
* Roan
Or
* Rowan

I think I like Roan better, but my boyfriend prefers Rowan, hihi.

    How do you want it to be pronounced? If it's pronounced like Rowan, I'd write it that way too. Otherwise, like Roan.

    I pronounce them differently too... I say the "w" clearly. So I'd go with the spelling that matches how you want to say it.

    Rowan! I think it looks much nicer. Roan looks so bald to me.

    So funny, we were in the same spot 2 years ago!

    My niece spells it as Roan
    and an acquaintance as Rowan
    so both are possible

    I personally think Roan is cooler and more beautiful.
