Thoughts?

We have been struggling with a boys name and have finally agreed on Flynn. As we don't know any Flynn's, and we want to keep it secret from those we know, I'd be keen to gauge general reactions! Also, any suggestions of middle names with more than 1 syllable, would be gratefully received!

I like it, but suspect it will be confused with the 9 million Finns out there.

I like it. The only Flynn I can think of is Flynn Rider from Tangled too

I've taught a Flynn :) lovely name, lovely boy. I hadn't heard it before but it's gorgeous.

Thats sort of where it came from. Really like Finn, but there are just too many at the moment. Wondered if changing it slightly might make a difference...

I think there is a danger than you will spend most of your child's life saying "No F-L-Y-N-N" but only because it's an unusual spelling and tbh I have a very normal name and people still spell it wrong...

Ooohh I like it!!

I can see a quite traditional name going with Flynn to balance out the unusual edge like Flynn Joseph but it does really depend on your surname...

Really like Flynn. I wanted it for ds2 but dp wasn't keen.

I really like Flynn. A good choice in my humble opinion.

Suggestions for middle name:

Flynn Alexander
Flynn Isaac
Flynn Carson
Flynn Mitchell

Flynn is a nice name. The perennial question will be "oh, are you Irish?"

Makes me think 'in like Flynn', although I'm not sure it's a commonly used phrase any more.

It's a great name, I have a Flynn Xavier.

I like Flynn.

Id go for Flynn Elliot Surname

I like it and I think most people know it's spelt Flynn these days, surely. Don't know any either (though I don't know of a single Finn either, where are these names popular? I never seem to have come across half the names that are spouted as being too popular on MN).

Since I just commented on Augusta, how about Flynn Augustus? Regal. :)

I love Flynn! If you change your mind what about Fletcher?/

Flynn's a lovely name.

Know lots of people with Flynn as a surname so doesn't work as a first name for me.

Sorry, another one who thought it was Finn/Fynn.

Much prefer Finn.

I like it a lot.

Finn is much nicer. Flynn is too surnamey.

I like it. Walter Junior in Breaking Bad briefly calls himself Flynn when he is rebelling against his dad.

Flynns a fab name. My brother has a Flynn and he is very rarely mistaken for Finn so don't let that put you off.
