Baby name discussions

I like it. We considered it for the same reasons, but a friend is using it for their child.

if YOU BOTH like it, then stick with it. Who cares if it is trendy, if you can agree, stick with it!

We know only one Finn and he is 3. I think it is cute! Congrats on agreeing on a name. I know how hard that can be!

I like it! And if you both like it, then it's a winner!

I didn't think anyone was really nasty. You're being oversensitive, PP.

Definitely a winner if you both agree. Don't bother trying to guess/second guess trends. After struggling to come with boys names that DH and I like, I would be overjoyed if we found our own version of Finn.

Congrats!

Thought I'd add that I know a liltle boy named Fenton and they call him Fen. Seems to be an unusual name.

Definitely go for it if you both agree. But as you can see from what happened here, you might want to keep it to yourself from friends and family.

I happen to like it a lot, but I would definitely put it in the category of trendy/novelty names. Also, names that can be interchanged with dog's names. For me that's not a bad thing, as I know both canine and human Rufus/Max/Riley/Jake's and love them all, but some people might not like that.

Off the top of my head I can think of 2 recent Finns on TV--Meredith's vet boyfriend a couple of seasons back in Grey's Anatomy and one of the main characters from Glee. It can also be short for Phineas.

sounds like a winner to me
