I like it. But have to admit my first thought was "Glee!"

MamaLazarou · 19/04/2010 15:23

I came on here to warn you that everyone will see your dc's name and think 'quim' I see others have already pointed that out. Have you got a back up name?

Awful. A non-name name.

5DollarShake · 20/04/2010 14:51

I went to primary school with a Quinn, who had a great fondness for wearing his sister's clothes at the slightest opportunity. As such, it is a very feminine name to me, but appreciate others won't have the same connotations.

othersideofchannel · 20/04/2010 14:52

I love Quinn!

Didn't Sharon Stone name her son Quinn?

padraig · 20/04/2010 14:57

Doctor Quinn Medecine Woman.

debaronz · 20/04/2010 15:00

Sorry, I don't like it.

mopsyflopsy · 20/04/2010 15:27

Good, strong, Celtic name. Means wise, or bright, or intelligent.

Makes a nice to the over popular Finn imo.

sophiesmummie · 20/04/2010 15:32

I like Quinn a lot. But I know a gorgeous 3 year old little boy named Quinn, so am a little biased .

tammy234 · 20/04/2010 15:41

Agree that Quinn is a (much nicer) alternative to Finn.

MartinlovesDebi · 20/04/2010 15:41

Glee

tammy234 · 20/04/2010 15:43

Glee?

Magaly · 21/04/2010 09:30

I don't strongly dislike it, but it sounds like a supermarket to me. SuperQuinn, Quinnsworth.....

I haven't seen Glee, but if there's a character called Quinn in it then I'd avoid it for that reason. there'll be a glut of Quinns in the next 2 years.

ki28 · 21/04/2010 09:45

not seen glee either. but may aviod it for that reason
