Ryan has been and gone fashionwise. Finley is ok and Finn is cute but it is popular.

It's your choice, I'd say write them down with your surname and see which is better personally (if it matters) I'd say Finely.

I like Ryan. There are loads of Finley's around here so Ryan would be a nice change.

Pickerel · 18/06/2017 15:03

Ryan

MrsJayy · 18/06/2017 15:04

I prefer Ryan to finley for a long while you couldn't move for Finleys/Finns time to give it a rest Grin

I love the name Ryan! Probably partly because i knew a baby Ryan (unto we moved house) and he style my heart!
DH vetoed it! Sad

I also like Finley/Finlay though

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 18/06/2017 15:46

I also like Ryan, it's a good name.

Hothothotsummer · 18/06/2017 15:48

Finley. There are a million teenage Ryans around here.

Oldgranny · 18/06/2017 15:50

Neither!

AmandaTor · 18/06/2017 15:54

Ryan I'd say :)

LucieLucie · 18/06/2017 16:13

I don't like that spelling of Finley, isn't it the female version of Finlay??

AmandaTor · 18/06/2017 16:16

@LucieLucie no? ConfusedConfused Finley is actually the most popular male spelling

Finley

All the Ryan's I know have been violent, so that's coloured my perception! It does seen such a macho name though.
