used too much for girls?

[heidimcbride]

Hello all! I've a little boy due in November, and my husband and I have been searching frantically for names, and we stumbled upon one we're quite fond of: Quinn. Although we've noticed Quinn has been used on girls much more these days--some opinions would be nice!
Thanks!

Really like that for a boy x

If I heard it at the park, I’d probably assume they were calling a girl but I do actually prefer it for a boy!

I'm not fond of names that you don't know what sex the child is, when you read it on a list.
There was a 'Quinn' (Quin?) in Glee who was female and that's the only 'character' I'm aware of in recent years.
So, I'm not keen myself.

I think boy when I hear it.

Nice name.

Quinn is definitely a boys name to me.

It's not one I particularly like, though (because double 'nn' looks too much like 'm''). Although quim is an older term and less common now than fanny, it's the same thing.

I thought boy when I read it. I like it!

I like it for a boy.

I'd automatically think boy

It’s more boy to me. Love it!

I only know one Quinn and he’s a he. A big burly bearded Scotsman.

I think it’s fine for a boy.

I'd assume boy. I also know a boy Cuinn, pronounced the same as Quinn.

Quinn = boy to me.

The slightly posh chap from the shutupandsitdown boardgame reviews is called Quintin, if that's any help..

It's a girl's name to me, I only know female Quinns.

Girl's name to me too.

According to Dark Greener website (which uses the Ons records of birth) Quinn is marginally more popular for boys.

Quinn the Eskimo. It sounds more male than female to me. Lovely name

Boys name to me. Love it! I was desperate for Quintus if we'd had a boy (Quinn for short ofc). But we've got two girls

Definitely a boy's name!

It sounds strong and masculine like Finn or Flynn. Q is a cool initial!

Yes, used more often for boys than girls according to the statistics. Great choice, op.

Reminds me of supermarkets.

Quinnsworth. Superquinn.

But if you're going to use it, it feels like a boys name.

I like Wynne for a girl though .

Girl from Glee, Peter Quinn from Homeland.

It's often a nickname for Quentin so boy.

There’s a Quinn (female) in Scandal. Reads too much like quim for me
