I love it, love it, love it, LOVE it. I think it's a strong name that stands out, but is gentle at the same time. It's unique, but not strange (even though it's gaining popularity, it won't be iverused, or so I'd like to think). I would have chosen it, but DH doesn't care for it. It's really a name that people either love or really dislike- which makes it hard to committ to for some people I bet. Personally I think it's a great baby name, kids name.. even young adukt.. older, dad name tho...hmm... old man name...hmmm...

I like it! It's a nice name, and I don't consider it to be a popular choice.

I love the name Finn. In fact, if my husband wasn't so set on passing his name down (he's a third and our baby will be the fourth, so it's a strong family tradition), we would name the baby Finnegan and call him Finn. I still wish I could convince him of it.

I like it! It's very handsome. I think I'd like it better as a nn, but it stands on its own just fine.

Oh, I love it!


It's been a favorite of mine for a long time.

I'm probably in the minority here, but Finn is NMS at all.

I think it's a very crisp, handsome and tailored name. I do also think it's starting to rise in popularity, so it's not as unique as it would've been, say, ten years ago, but it's still a favorite.

i like it! I prefer short names for boys and I think it has a nice strong sound.
