for a girl? What do you think? I'm really surprised it isn't more common. Do you see it rising?

Do you prefer Aquinnah nn Quinn or just Quinn? Quin or Quinn? Quinne?

I like Ariella and Quinn best of all girls names at the moment. Are they too mismatched for sisters? Or is the combo alright as long as you love both names?

I know two girls named Quinn...one age 13, the other new-born. so, not very common.

I prefer Aquinnah, nn Quinn. Spelled like that.

I like Quinn, but I would never use it because I like names that I just find to be better and less...well, masculine. To me, Quinn is very masculine but I can also see it being used on a female because of the Dr. Quinn reference.

Ariella and Quinn remind me of the Little Mermaid which I just rewatched, lol. I think one of Ariel's sisters (I was watching the recent prequel) was named Aquina or something.

The combo is all right, IMO, but not my style.

I think it could be on the rise. I like it on both genders, but I prefer it on a boy. For a girl I like Quinn, for a boy I like the spelling Quin. Ariella and Quinn do pair nicely together.

Just as a note, I've also seen Quinella "Quinn" (in a book) and Quinnifer "Quinn" (on a television show).

I just like Quinn as a name.
And I like the combo Ariella Quinn and the sibset.

I don't really like Quinn for a girl at all. It's nms.

Ariella and Quinn work together for a sibset, though.
