User Comments about the name Logan


  • Comment left Mar 12, 2009: "I'm Logan Tanner Xxxxxx from 1981. I could never find any keychains or a license plate for my bike when I was a kid and I would come across another Logan maybe once a year, with about 50/50 boy/girl. Now Logan AND Tanner are much more popular. My little brother Tanner has 2 of each just on his football team!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Feb 12, 2009: "My little boy is 4 and his name is spelt LOGHAN - for some reason we decided to add the H and i think it looks so much nicer with the H in it." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Dec 19, 2008: "My youngest son was born in Feb 2003, named by my husband that recently passed away....Just a wonderful and masculine name!!:)" (Report as inappropriate)

    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 Oct 18, 2007: "We named our son, Logan almost 25 years ago because it was unusual and chances of there being another Logan in his classes as school were slim. I still love the name and it fits him well. I think he also likes it because it's unusual." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jun 25, 2007: "Male Logan's are crazy. My brother's name is Logan and he's a handful and a half. Every other Logan I've met is also a handful, but they are very, very loyal people, I've noticed. Loyal and complex." (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 01, 2007: "My brother has this name, but he spells it differetnly. His is spelt Logen. My mom thought that we should have uniquely spelled first names die to our common last name. I have searched that name Logen instead of Logan on here, and it looks like there aren't any people with that spelling. But I love the name." (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 17, 2006: "I just named named my son Logan. I love it!!! I don't know anyone by that name and it just sounds nice." (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)
