Finn i guess isnt bad, but i dont think I would use it for my own child. I do not think Finn is too short to be a full name, but I see where you are having trouble thinking of a middle name for just Finn. Maybe you could consider Finlay with the nickname of Finn.

A guy at work with has a little boy named Finn. He's 1.5 and a cutie. His sister, 15, is Jane. the both have weird my-mom-and-dad-are-geologists middle names.

To me Finn sounds like a nn. I think of Huckleberry Finn when I hear it. But it could stand on its own as a fn if given the right middle name.

I like it as a full first name. Mostly because any name it would be used as a nn for, I don't like.

Its too nicknamey for me, I prefer it as a nickname for a longer name like Finlay Finnian or Griffin

I like Finn as a nn and as a MN only. For both genders. However I personally don't like it enough to use it. It's more a GP name.

I like it as a FN, and as a NN for Finnian and Finnegan.

I like it as a nn for Finlay.

I think it's cute, but wouldn't use it as a full first name. On the other hand, I loathe all the full names that it could be short for.

I think it (along with Quinn) makes a much better middle name than a first name.

I have a Finley, nicknamed Finn. I think it ages well.

---

I'd pair it with a longer middle name. I like:

---

Finn Ulysses
Finn Elliott
Finn Isaiah
Finn Matthias
Finn Sebastian (a bit too fishy, though)
Finn Tobiah

Too nick-namey. I love it as a nickname for Finley!

Finley Sean
Finley Alexander
Finley James
Finley Carson
Finley John

I prefer it on it's own, and think it's a great name for a child or an adult. Wish I could use it, but my fiance doesn't like it... :(

I like it, but it seems to be gaining in popularity, so I probably wouldn't use it.

---

It's nice enough on its own, but I much prefer it as a NN (Finlay or Finnegan etc).

My brothers name! I've always LOVED it, as has he. It stands on its own and has for hundreds of years in Irish Mythology. Often seen as Fionn.
Personally I can't stand Finlay (last name) or Finnegan, etc etc with all the similar names. It's beautiful and strong as it is!

Love it, but hate all the long versions of it but Fionnbharr which is a bit much outside of Ireland.
I prefer the spelling Fionn, but it is most definitely not nicknamey and can stand on its own, as it has for years.

I love this name. In Germany Finn is a full name and names like Finnegan or Finlay are almost unknown.

Possible combos are

Finn Jonathan
Finn Alexander
Finn Valerian
Finn Benjamin
Finn Leander
Finn Gabriel
Finn Aurelius
Finn Lennart
Finn Lukas
Finn Constantin

I dislike it, it reminds me of fish and it seems like a 'weak' name to me, also it's so trendy (as is Finlay) right now where I live.
