boy's name, what do you think?

[nightowlmostly]

Ok, so it's a bit random, but what do you think of Finch? Can be shortened to Finn if he hates it.

Be honest please, I really like it and think it will be good when he's an adult, but am not 100% yet!

It's a bird. Sorry, couldn't get past that.

i've heard it as a surname before, don't love, don't hate it, it's different without being ridiculous.

Rhymes with pinch.

And Wasn't one of the characters in American pie called Finch? The one who had an affair with Stifler's mum?

No, definitely a no from me (but then both my ds have names in the top 40 so you might they think they were dull - different strokes and all that!)

Finchy was the sleazy salesman in 'The Office'. Not sure how or why I remember that. As a first name it's bloody awful. Please don't saddle your child with it.

It sounds like a 70's tv detective. Awful. I don't like Finn either.

Don't really like it. I like F names generally but, this just sounds weird to me in some way.

No.

and another No. Its a little garden bird, not a name.

No. Just No.

Finn is nice though.

What do I think about finch? I love finches. They're curious looking, inquisitive, entertaining little things.

As a name? Not so much.

No. I know someone with it as a surname and he gets called Tit by his mates.

Terrible, sorry. Don't like Finn either.

But I do like Robin.

Well, thank you all for your honesty anyway! Will keep thinking on it, hopefully come up with something better! I just want something a bit different without being too wacky!

I like it :) really like it a lot. Not sure about the character associations other posters have spotted though

Quite like a lot of 'surnamey' names, Fletcher, Mitchell, Mackenzie, Huxley...

Think boys can get away with it and it's quite manly as an adult.

I quite like it, I also really like the name Finn

Not keen on either Finch or Fin/Finn, sorry.
