it might be one of only two names in the entire universe of male names DH and i agree on. Other is Finley but that has its own issues

thoughts?

Quite like it

villamariavintrapp · 26/06/2019 22:26

I see quim, so wouldn't use it myself..

Herefortheduration · 26/06/2019 22:28

I know 3 Quinn's, all super cool blokes. All in the US too, I haven't heard it here.

Camsie30 · 26/06/2019 22:28

Love it!

The Eskimo? When Quinn the Eskimo gets here...

SillyBub · 26/06/2019 22:30

It's a yes from me.

I've worked in a very large 800+ primary school for years and never had a Quinn through the doors. I like it a lot.

EmmaGrundyForPM · 26/06/2019 22:31

I like it. It does make me think of Quinn the Eskimo but I'm old!

teenmum18 · 26/06/2019 22:33

I like it but prefer Quentin.

OldAndWornOut · 26/06/2019 22:34

I've heard it used a lot here in the south east.

Bagadverts · 26/06/2019 22:35

Never come across it but I like it.

KezzabellaB · 26/06/2019 22:39

I like it!

Mummabear12345567889 · 26/06/2019 22:43

LOVE Quinn. I wish my husband liked it but hes boring when it comes to names.

Jocasta2018 · 26/06/2019 22:48

I see, read or hear Quinn and think of Quim!

Redshoeblueshoe · 26/06/2019 22:49

I think it's great Smile

LittleChicken11 · 26/06/2019 22:51

I love Quinn as a first name, also love Devlin

Mum2lots · 26/06/2019 23:04

My granddaughter is Quyen (Vietnamese) I adore it xxxxx

llangennith · 26/06/2019 23:16

No.

NameChange30 · 26/06/2019 23:19

I like it. It was on my list.

MollyHuaCha · 26/06/2019 23:29

No from me I'm afraid.

LoeweHammockBuyItDoIt · 26/06/2019 23:32

Perfectly normal surname odd first name. JMO

Fairenuff · 26/06/2019 23:34

I think he could get called quim, so it's a no from me.

Bluerussian · 26/06/2019 23:47

I like Quinn, it's a mighty name.
Also the name of the sailor/captain who was eaten by Jaws. So, one could say it is a tasty name.

DramaAlpaca · 26/06/2019 23:51

Totally agree.

ForeverFaithless · 26/06/2019 23:52

Quinn and Finlay are very common surnames here, so I find them a bit bizarre as a first name.

But, they actually sound 'nice'. Which is even more bizarre!!

mondler · 27/06/2019 07:52

I like it although it makes me think of sliders.
