Help[Opinions] Re: Finn
in reply to a message by Lily
Love it. But it is getting too popular and trendy. I know a lot of recent (crappy) YA novels feature a Finn romantic lead. The girls seem to be swooping onto this name, too. :(
I think Finn works well enough as a full name. It is a little nicknamey but not so much that it feels incomplete.
Finn. I know Fionn is pronounced the same way but my American brain cannot help but think, fee-ON. No Fynn. That y makes it even more trendy! Fin reminds me of a shark fin. I like Finn.
Hmm... I wouldn't mind using it by itself but if I /had/ to pick a longer form, I'd use Finnegan.
Finley/Finlay are trendier, imo. It's everywhere for girls and boys. Finley>Finlay. I like Finian a little bit and I do like Finnegan, if it is a bit surnamey. I dislike Finbar.
It IS trendy but whether or not it is TOO trendy is, of course, up to the person. For me, I'd say no. Finley, probably. Finn, no.
