Hi all, we’re having real trouble picking a boy name for our soon to arrive bundle of joy. Our surname is Sims and my husband loves the name Finlay, to the point that he won’t consider anything else. He likes the nickname Fin but I’m worried that’s too rhymey with Sims. He says that no-one would ever use his nickname with his surname so doesn’t think that would be a problem but I don’t know what to make of it. Any opinions or any other suggestions very welcome!

Fin Sims is not great and people will use both names together a lot.

Finlay Sims sounds great, but Fin Sims not so much. Would be be Fin most of the time, or just a shortened version of it around the house occasionally?

Fin Sims is not great, sorry.
