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!

I would assume a Quinn was female.

Quinn from Daria, Quinn from One Tree Hill etc. were females. These are the only Quinns I have "known".

It looks masculine and I only know boys names Quinn. Like Finn.

A feminine form could be Quinne or Quintina?

Quinn definitely mostly a boys name in UK, dd had a boy Quinn in her class. I think it got turned into a girl’s name in America.

Ps. I like it a lot
