Is Quinn a male or female name to you?

It is not a boy’s name.

It can be either.

It is an advantage to have an ambiguous name that forces sexist people to judge you based on factors other than gender.

I know 2 male Quinns and 2 female Quinns, all under age 10. I guess it's popular in my neighborhood because I seem to hear it on the playground and out in public all the time...pretty even mix of boys/girls. I don't like the name but it has nothing to do w/ gender/sex. It just doesn't sound good to me. I think of Quinine.

WTF Quynh/Quinn is a very common Vietnamese name

Qin was the first Chinese emperor, who united the country, built the Great Wall, etc

This is where the ubiquity of adding pronouns to your email signature is helpful.

My female assumption probably comes from the primary association the name has for me - Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman. Yes, that's the last name obviously, but Quinn = woman in my mind.

LOL same! I had to google what her first name was, I knew that was her last name but it's been so long I couldn't remember anything besides Quinn

You are trying too hard.

I've known Quinn's who were both male and female (having dinner with a female friend named Quinn tonight!) It's either, but I think of it more often as feminine.

Adult, I would think probably male but not be sure. Kid, probably female but also not sure.

+1. Girls in my neighborhood include Ryan, Quinn, Finn... I can't think of dumber, more boring names for girls/women.

Because it is not your history?
Good to know that is all that matters.

(But FYI: that history is shared by 1/5 of the humans on the planet. )

I think it leans toward a male name, but I’d still put it in the “Pat and Chris” category of names for either sex.

Know more males with the name but it goes either way. kinda like Dylan
