Quinn! and not just because of homeland

mrsschu · 14/04/2016 21:40

Honestly I don't really like either but if I had to pick one I'd say Tristan is by far the better. I really dislike surnames as first names and Quinn is one of the new breed of very common Irish surnames which have somehow become "cool" as first names. It sounds dreadful IMO. Ok rant over

Quinn reminds me of queynte- cunt in the Canterbury tales. Sorry Blush love Tristan though

cherrypez · 14/04/2016 21:49

Love love love Quinn!

Tristan is the better of the two, imo Quinn is a girls name

RiverTam · 15/04/2016 10:18

I think of Quinn as a girls' name too, but it also reminds me of quim (cunt), so I'd avoid it! Don't like Tristan at all.

DerelictMyBalls · 15/04/2016 10:23

Tristan, because Quinn written longhand looks like Quim.

Purplebluebird · 15/04/2016 10:25

I like Quinn Smile

Tiggeryoubastard · 15/04/2016 10:26

Tristan is better but that's all u can say.

Tiggeryoubastard · 15/04/2016 10:26

I can say.

MrsCaecilius · 15/04/2016 10:50

Tristan is lovely.

Quinn sounds American to me and a bit trendy (I am not trendy).

UntilTheCowsComeHome · 15/04/2016 11:42

Quinn is a girls' name

Tristan is ok.

Sophronia · 15/04/2016 12:42

Tristan. I see Quinn as more of a surname.

IcedTin · 15/04/2016 14:39

Tristan

WaitroseCoffeeCostaCup · 15/04/2016 14:40

I know Quinn was s boys name first but I think it's better for a girl. Tristan is nice I like it!

CustardOmlet · 15/04/2016 21:19

Quinn is the sister in he Daria cartoon, so I would go for Tristan (plus I love Tristan!)

Gummibaers · 15/04/2016 21:27

Quinn! Cool, strong and masculine.

Tristan is ok but a little 'triste' (sad)

Abigail12 · 15/04/2016 21:31

I love Tristan, sadly it really wouldn't go with my surname. Sorry but I agree, Quinn is to much like quim for my liking...

Gummibaers · 15/04/2016 21:53

How about Quentin?
