We are really struggling to think of a boys name! What do you think to Finn or Millen?

oh dear - it really is a split camp with either name isn't it??

I don't want to say what our other DCs are called incase someone recognises me.

Finn works well in the sense that a one syllable name works well.

Millan is more 'me' than Finn, though having said that, it really is only it's popularity that's inhibiting me as I do think it's a great name if only it wasn't everywhere!

We've never been so stumped on names before!

I think if you have any more names that you can just throw at me, that would be really helpful! Not of the Ben, Mark, Paul or the Kyle, Cain, Kai types though....

My beautiful daughter is called Millen. I have many compliments about our name choice.

Should go to bed but after reading your post, feel the urge to wrack my brain! Like Finn. Is fairly popular but don't think it will ever be top 10. My DS's name gets slated for being 'everywhere' but I haven't met many and there are none in his school.

Just seen it's an old post. How annoying! Hate it when old threads are dug up!

Finn is a gorgeous name with associations with Celtic mythology. Finley/Finlay is common but Finn less so.My dgs is Finn so I am prejudiced :-)

Oh flip I wish I had looked at the date!

i love finn, but i do have a finley at home. i will add he is the only fin in his school!! so really not over popular in my opinion. i also loved the name addison and sonny when choosing. have not heard of many of these. good luck!!
