[Opinions] Re: Quincy
in reply to a message by Mikah
Quincy makes me think of the quince fruit, and John Quincy Adams. I have a hard time imagining it on a real baby. For me, it has a kind of pretentious/uppity feel. I think Quinn sounds a lot more down-to-earth. Or perhaps Quentin or Quintin.But I agree with you, Quinn seems to be used more and more for females. When I hear the name, I think of "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman" or the sister Quinn on the show "Daria." Okay, my references are a bit dated but even still-- I can only think of female bearers of the name in the media.
