No, I wouldn't.

But my colleague has just had an e-mail from a PR person with Quincy as his first name, and I naturally thought it should be aired here.

She had one from a Hadrian the day before too. I am quite .

I have got them theme tune from Quincy ME going through my head now.

Is she American?

I laughed at this once, but it turned out to be some figure from American History, associated with hte boston tea party I think

Don't like it though!

It's like the classy Madison in Boston circles.

Quincy Jones. Very cool. I quite like it.

I like Quincy, but then I too know a cute 5 year old.

I love it.

Quincy Jones. You couldn't get any cooler.

Vetoed by DH though.

Quincy is cool, but I'd probably put Quinn on the birth certificate and use Quincy as nickname.

PurlyQueen · 01/10/2009 15:20

Love it!

annasmami · 01/10/2009 15:28

Reminds me of Quincy Jones - I like it!

bess23 · 01/10/2009 16:00

I'm against the grain on this one really don't like sorry.

ramonaquimby · 01/10/2009 16:03

i know of 2 girls called quincy in canada

loobylu3 · 01/10/2009 16:18

Sorry but I don't like it. A quinsy is a peritonsillar abscess and it is pn exactly the same!

PestoSunshineMonster · 01/10/2009 16:21

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Um, I thought quincy was an illness too, so it wouldn't be a name I would ever consider.
Sort of like naming a girl Candida - isn't that a yeast infection?

HKT · 01/10/2009 20:13

Should probly apologise in advance for offending anyone called Candida - no offence was meant

JemL · 06/10/2009 20:44

I like it; and DH loves it - he would have called DS1 it if he had veto!!
