Quinn for a boy?

[northernbutterfly]

What do people think of Quinn for a little boy? Is it a goer?

I like it but to me it’s definitely a girls name. I actually know 5 people who’ve called their baby Quinn recently and they’re all girls (and also American in case that matters).

The teen boy in White Lotus is called Quinn. I see it as unisex.

I know a Quinn who is a boy teenager now though, only one I know.

I only know one Quinn and he's a little boy. I love it!

It's unisex to me. I've met both a boy and a girl Quinn. There's also Quincy nn Quinn/Quince if you like that?

Using Irish surnames as first name seems like a bit of an American trend, but maybe you are? I can see the appeal but it’s not for me personally.

I prefer Quinn for a boy. It’s cute and smart, I like it.

I only know 1 Quinn and they are male

There is a boy named Quinn in my daughters class. He's 8.

While personally I see Quinn as more feminine, the name stats in England and Wales show a similar number of male and female Quinns.

I really like Quinn and we're thinking of it for a middle name if we end up with a baby boy - definitely unisex I would say.

I don't see it as male or female and don't know anyone with that as a first name. I know plenty of people with it as a surname around here though.

Love Quinn and only know boys!

It's a strong name like Finn or Flynn.

I also know a few Quentins who go by Quinn if you wanted a longer name.

I know Quinn boy and girl boy same time as my son.

I love it for a boy more than a girl.

I meant born not boy again!

I know 3 Quinn's and all are males under 18.

Thanks everyone! More popular than I thought!! We have a Mc surname, my DH is worried the M might make it dodgy... what do you think

Only know one Quinn, male

I read it as a surname first and then v v similar to quim and can't get past it.

What's wrong with e.g. Quinn McDonald or Quinn McMillan?

I think Quinn is a great name - strong and not overused. And Q is a cool initial 😎

We considered it for DS, I like it

I do like Quinn, and the only ones I know in real life are boys, but then someone pointed out that its very close to 'quim' and it put me off!

It looks like Quim written down

Quinn McSomething does sound like someone out of a Doctor-Nurse romance - Dr Quinn McLeod

It is also a little close to Quim
