What do we think of Quincy for a boy?? Is it too posh?

PS the lady is as British as they come.

Thank you for your opinions. Still dithering on it! I do really like Quinn so may just go for that.

I quite like it but prefer Quentin - it sounds more masculin than Quincy.

Quinn is a cute nickname for either.

Quentin Crisp wasn't very masculine.

I have a huge oil painting of Quincy ME in my living room.

Piglet, all the Quentins I know (including my nephew) are very masculine Smile. But I was referring to the name, not a specific person you may know. I find the incy ending of Quincy more feminine sounding than the tin of Quentin.

I love Quinn. Why not just use that?

If you insist on a full name, I'd also prefer Quentin. Quincy is too close to the fruit quince.
