Well I love it! So I used it! (Outs self completely! )

My Griffin is 16 now and we've only ever had compliments about it, it goes perfectly with our surname, it's easy to spell, obvious pronunciation, interesting but not 'out there'.

I thought we'd abbreviate to Finn, but he's mostly Griffin, Griff or Griffy (the last only at home!)

After picking it I subsequently discovered it was the name of the local brewery and the ground of our local football team! Still love it. If you've worked out you know me PM if you want.

Best name ever! So there!

Yep Peter Griffin...belchy fat men with beer guts

The bird is the word

Makes me think of my lovely grandad. It was his middle name and if we ever have a boy it will be his middle name too. I love it.

Grrrrryffindor!

Nick.

Peter.

Bird bird bird, bird is the word.

HTH.

I like it. My first thought is family guy, I'm glad the BNP doesn't come to my mind!

...that the parents had meant to use the name Gryffudd but made a mistake.

No mistake Hiddle I love Welsh names, I love Gryffudd but I only have the teeniest tinyest drop of Welsh blood so couldn't have got away with it. So yet another reason Griffin is a fab name, Welsh roots but you can get away with it if you're an English/Scottish/Maltese/Irish cross.

Griffindor.
Gryff is better.
Gryffudd is surely Griffith in English. (A surname. )
