About the Name Rowan
Rowan is a Celtic name with two compelling meanings: in Irish Gaelic it means little red one (from 'ruadh,' meaning red), while in the English nature-name tradition it refers to the rowan tree, a magical tree in Celtic mythology associated with protection and foresight. The rowan's vibrant red berries add a visual richness to the name. It is poetic, nature-connected, and perfectly unisex.
