[Opinions] Finn
What are your thoughts on the name Finn?

It reminds me of the guy on Glee. I really hate that show. Though I do find Finn to be one of the least annoying characters.
I like it, but only as a nickname for something a bit more substantial.
I love it. I keep going back and forth on whether it needs a full name, but I think I just like Finn.
Adorable as a nickname. I don't think it will age well as a first name though.
I love Finn, but I prefer it as a nickname, I think. Great name, though.
There are plenty of worse names, and I even kind of like it on someone else, but on the other hand it's not much different than naming a baby Flipper or Paw or Hoof.

I've only ever come across it on pet dogs. Seriously. No joking.
I mean, it's not a bad name, just a bit trendy and a bit pet-name-like. It would work as a middle name or something, where a one-syllable name fits best. You know, a slightly less boring filler name than James or John or whatever, but still a filler name all the same.

I have loved it since I was a kid...pre-Glee, pre-popularity...and I know that sounds like every name nerd's excuse but I'm sticking to it.
I grew up with my grandfather and great-grandpa telling me the stories of Fionn MacCool. For years, my favourite spelling was Fionn and then I changed to Finn for more practical purposes.
I find it hard to find objective reasons for my love of it, for me it is what I connect it to but it is a good name to me- solid, has history, is connected to a great mythological hero and it reflects my cultural heritage.
If I had a son tomorrow there is no question that he'd be a Finn.

I don't like it. It's weak-sounding and also Hollywood tryndee-seeming.
