User Comments about the name Logan


Comment left Apr 16, 2008: "Love the name Logan for a little boy. It's my sons name who was born in 2005. He was named after Logan Madder (ex-machinehead guitarist) by my husband." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Feb 22, 2008: "My son is named Logan and is 12 years old. We only have come across a few other Logan's in his school. Not like some names where you can have a few in the same class like Matthew or Jacob. I think it fits in with the crowd and yet stands out at the same time. Great choice for any parents to be!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Nov 06, 2007: "Our son is Logan and we love it, but it is was too popular these days. Too bad, it is a GREAT name and we are glad it is his." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left May 25, 2007: "My daughter was born in 1991, making her 16, my mother picked out this name, and I loved it thinking how different and unique, now I am finding it has really caught on for a girls name. It is actually considered a surname, like Regan or MaKenzie. She has always loved her name and I have never regretted naming her Logan, she is a very feminime blonde, and it is so great when people are expecting a boy to walk forth and instead they see a beautiful young girl, also recently she started dating a boy named Logan and they think that it's pretty cool. The only problem I ever had was when she was a newborn, she was born bald and inspite of those pink dresses she wore everyone wanted to refer to her as a "HE" but she soon outgrew that."

    Comment left Apr 12, 2007: "I am named Logan and so is this other kid in my grade and we are best friends, also my sister got an american girl doll and its name is logan kind of creepy to have a doll named after you." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Jan 29, 2007: "I'm almost 16, and I'm a girl named Logan. Most of the time when new teachers call roll, they outwordly tell me that they were expecting a guy. What's funny is I am not "manly" whatsoever. And meeting guys named Logan is o.k.-it shouldn't be that bad to meet a girl named Logan(referring to the Dec. 8 comment) And in regards to the Jan. 3 comment-deal with it. It kind of hurts that you don't think some girls can have a strong, dignified name. I also love my name, and it's individuality. So please, don't get angry or saddened-just look at it as another child blessed with such a strong name." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jan 22, 2007: "Logan is the only name my husband and I both loved and agreed on. It definitely suits my son since he acts like a little man at 3 yrs old. I am now pregnant and having a hard time picking a name out for boy number 2. I love this name and can't find another I like as much." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jan 03, 2007: "Our 6 1/2 yr old son, Logan, loves his name. We think it is dignified for him and makes him who he is. We wanted an celtic name for our boy that would suit him. We are VERY saddened when we come across a girl who has this name, it is intended to be a strong boys name!!" (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Oct 19, 2006: "We named our son, Logan Luke Bartholomew Bazeley in 1979. We started a trend, I believe. I still like it and I hope that he likes it too. His initials are LLBBL." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 12, 2006: "My son is named Logan, also after the x-men character, so of course I love the name." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Sep 21, 2006: "My husband named our son Logan after the comic book character Wolverine. Logan loves his name and loves Xmen!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left May 22, 2006: "Our son is Logan Andreas and we loved the name. It is getting more common than we had hoped for ... one nickname not mentioned is L-train." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Apr 16, 2006: "i love the name Logan for a girl as well as for a boy. i am only in high school but i'm in a parenting class were we get to take care of a doll that acts, sounds and feels like a really baby...mine is a girl and i named it Logan Abigail. I think it cute" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Mar 21, 2006: "Well we named our son Logan after my husband had known a little boy when he was little and ever since then loved that name so I went with I love it now though." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Feb 19, 2006: "My son Logan was born on 8-2-02. His mom picked the name because after 18 years of working with developmentally challenged school children, it was the only boys name she could think of that didn't bring to mind a "challenging" child from years past...." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 16, 2005: "Our little boy is called Logan, it wasnt that common when we named him, however it is now incredibly popular in the UK, probably from Wolverine. He probably would have been called Logan even if he was a girl, because we couldnt think of any other name that we liked at the time" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jul 11, 2005: "I actually received it after the comic book character known as Wolverine. I love the name... much more than my 1st name. I had friends in Washington who would would use variations like Log, Loag, Loggie or Lo-dawg (that last one was commonly used with close friends)! Other than that, I've heard a few little girls named Logan as well... now this awesome masculine sounding name has been tainted! Crud!" (Report as inappropriate)
