And probably should more realisticly be 15 or so. Besides that though, why would they name their daughter Rapunzel? Kind of feels like they would just be asking for her to be kidnapped. Actors almost always play characters who are younger than thy are. It is partially due to child labor laws. A prime example was Tom Welling being 24, when he portrayed the 15 year old Clark Kent. Considering, Giles Matthey is returning as Gideon. I would say, that Meegan Warner is within the correct age-range to be Emma and Hook's daughter.

Asfor the name.... in the original fairytale, it is Gothel who named the girl Rapunzel. Assuming Eloise Gardener is Rapunzel's cursed identity, it could be her original birthname.
