Rowen

My favourtite boys name at the moment is Rowen. However, I think I would like the middle name of any kids i have (ages away yet) to be the names of my grandparents - BUT Rowen Stephen and Rowen Harry don't sound so good to my ears.

What do you think? do you think that to use a family name is important enough to put up with it sounding less than a perfect pairing? Because Harry and Stephen aren't really my style of first name (want something quite unusual without being stupid and there are loads of harrys and stephens!) but I want to use them I probably would just ignore the fact that they aren't perfect, but I'm just wondering what you all think.

That's a really good idea! must bear that in mind in 10 years or so when kids come :p the thing i didn't like was the ryhming-ness of rowan stephan, but rowan stefan sounds better :) Stefan is my favourite of those ones, it just doesn't rhyme so much cus the emphasis is different. Great suggestion thanks :D
