I honestly really like the name Glenn. It is strong, uncommon but not unheard of, and easy to spell and pronounce. I like it for both genders, as it does, of course, remind me of the beautiful Glenn Close. I also appreciate the fact that it ages gracefully. Overall, I think Glenn is a solid name.
I love this name for someone regardless of gender! I know I'm probably going to get down-voted; but I honestly don't care. I think this is a very solid name in general. I love the nature association! Also, just say it out loud! It sounds nice, too.
Love this name. It was my grandpa's middle name and I always loved it!

This name sounds dorky and kind of old-mannish. It's not the worst name in the world, but I would never consider using it.

Glen/Glenn is a strong and simple name for a baby boy, teen and grown man. Glen//Glenn sounds dreamy too. My Grandmother's name is Glennes and I like the idea of using Glenn to honor her. I would never use this for a girl though ever. Glennes and Glenda are nice choices!
I'd like this name except all I can think of when I hear it is Dairy Glen, the brand of milk. I know it's spelled differently, but it is still pronounced the same.
I have no idea who Glenn Beck is, so that doesn't play a role in my opinion of this name. But still, I don't really like this name. I just don't really like the sound of it.
This name sounds quite... oh, let's say "glitzy." Just because of the (in)famous bearer Glenn Beck, I would NEVER use it on a child, because to me it is synonymous with "pompous redneck idiot." Don't name your daughter this, either. It is a masculine name. I do, however, love the name Glynis (and other variants, likie Glenys or Glynnis) and think Glen is a lovely nickname for it.
