Help replacing a name

Girl Names
1

Since I named my son [name_u]Owen[/name_u] I realized that I have to take [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] out of my top five for a girl since they look so similar. I think [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] and [name_u]Owen[/name_u] sound different enough to be siblings but they look too similar.

I need replacement ideas. I can’t use [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] which to me is an easy replacement.

Ideas so far, which is your favorite?
[name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_u]Eden[/name_u]
[name_f]Corinne[/name_f]
[name_f]Marin[/name_f]
[name_f]Brynn[/name_f]
[name_u]Arden[/name_u]
[name_f]Merryn[/name_f]

Please send me other names you feel would be a good replacement for [name_f]Gwen[/name_f].

Thanks

Ha! I have gone through this exact same thing! I have an [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and adore [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] but have had to let it go, along with [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] and [name_u]Wren[/name_u], which I thought was too close as well. (which is too bad because i realized that [name_u]Wren[/name_u] would be the perfect way to honor my father [name_m]Warren[/name_m])

I still have [name_f]Gwyneth[/name_f] on my list though, which I probably wouldn’t actually use… but I think you could get away with [name_f]Gwyneth[/name_f] nn [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] or [name_u]Gwynn[/name_u] better than just [name_f]Gwen[/name_f].

I think [name_f]Brynn[/name_f], [name_f]Marin[/name_f], and [name_f]Corinne[/name_f] would all be fine with [name_u]Owen[/name_u]. You already have a lot of -n ending names, so i’ll just throw out some names I think would make a good sister for [name_u]Owen[/name_u]:

[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f]
[name_f]Mara[/name_f]
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Hattie[/name_f]
[name_f]Maisie[/name_f]
[name_u]Reese[/name_u]
[name_f]Lily[/name_f]
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_f]Nora[/name_f]
[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_u]Hadley[/name_u]

[name_u]Eden[/name_u] and [name_f]Brynn[/name_f] are my favorites from your list!

Have you considered [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f]? [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] is a NN possibility (but doesn’t have to be written since you don’t like how similar it looks to [name_u]Owen[/name_u]), but [name_f]Vera[/name_f] is also an option - and perhaps [name_f]Nina[/name_f]? I could see that.

This list has names ending in -n only since you seem pretty set on that!:

[name_u]Addison[/name_u]
