Finlay is nms for a boy but it's nmsaa for a girl.

Finlay / Finley is *definitely* a boy's name to me. It just doesn't suit a girl at all. Faith and Grace aren't awful, but they're so tired as middle names, and very plain.

I've never seen it on a girl (other than the celebrity mentioned), and I think it would be a horrible thing to start. We've already lost so many great boys' names by giving them to girls, why this one too???

My son's name

is Finley. I don't like it for a girl at all.

Don't see it as a girl's name . . .

but there's always Fiona or Fionnuala . . . I think both of those are great.

I like Finlay Grace...but it Finlay seems more male to me.

I don't think Finlay really suits a girl, although I imagine I could get used to it. It's getting so overused on little boys where I live, though, that I'm almost sick of it.

Sorry, have to agree.

I can't really picture a male name on a female anymore then I can picture a female name on a male. And that, to me, is a good thing.

Finlay is a boys name so i would say no to Grace or Faith as middle names, Maybe Justice or Truth a virtue name that is a bit more masculine sounding. un I am not a big fan of Grace in general because of its way over the top popularity right now.

Finley (this spelling) is a great name, but ONLY for boys.
