DH and I really love this name, but then I discovered it has been recently used on a really popular TV show....I don't want people to think we got it from there, plus I hate the character on that show. Hoping it won't wreck the name for me....
Just thought I would see what everyone's first reaction was to see if I was needlessly worrying:)
"Owen loves his mama!" (Throw Mama From the Train) A friend ruined this name for me years ago with that statement but it honestly is the first thing that comes to my mind when I hear Owen.
There's an adorable children's book called Owen (by Kevein Henkes) that features a mouse and his reluctance to outgrow a yellow blanket. It was very clever.
For me, that's what comes to mind. I think its cute.
Married my best friend on 5/14/05
Three Girls: Bits 2/08 Biscuit 10/09 & Sweet Chuck 2/12 One Favorite son: Suishy Smalls 6/14 And another Princess coming 7/16
I know a 2 year old with the name. That and Wilson were my first thoughts.
I wouldn't worry about it. Owen is a fairly popular name that would not be associated with just one TV character. (Just like Alex, Cristina, and Isobel on Grey's aren't).
Re: what's the first thing you think of....
That's not bad I guess....
