What are your thoughts please? My name book says it is the feminine spelling; I like it and DH loves it so may go with it, but are we being silly/cruel/condeming her to a lifetime of people being surprised she is female etc?

There was one in home and Away if that helps?

Have you considered Ffion (Feeon) - imo this is more feminine.

Personally i'm not keen on it, probably because we know 3 Finley's all of whom are boys.

The name has more than one meaning depending on where you find,as do many,one book says the feminine; fair haired warrior,I did not dream this. Chances are people that have objections to this name for a female,have children with names that I dislike and find boring p,so yeah,each to their own.

If Dillon can be a girls name then I don’t see why Finley can’t be either. I like it
