what do you ladies think of the name "quinn" as a first name?
we're thinking quinn patrick, though the middle name is completely flexible.

quinn patrick is my mother's dalmatian's name.

but, i like the name for kids too.

[babyalligator.livejournal.com]

that's funny, giving a dalmation a middle name!
as i said, we're not totally sold on patrick as a middle name. but i love quinn, because it's kind of original.

[the-theorist.livejournal.com]

I like it.

[quiet-recluse.livejournal.com]

I think of Quinn from Daria.

[checkingmypulse.livejournal.com]

i also thought of Quinn from Daria but i think it's a great name either for a boy or a girl

[http://users.livejournal.com/---surfacing/]

to be completely honest, i think Quinn is more of a girl's name. but that's just my opinion

[hitzpink.livejournal.com]

I agree, I definitely think of Quinn as a girl's name.

[smrcampfan1.livejournal.com]

Quinn is a name on our list for a girl but I also love it for a boy. The only thing is...everytime Jeff (SO) says it...he says it like Quinn's friend on Daria...Quinnnnnnn

people keep saying "quinn from daria" but i have no idea what that is! i just googled it, and it turns out it's an mtv thing. we don't have mtv here in canada.

i love quinn.

[babyhoyt.livejournal.com]

I like it, and I didn't think of daria at all.

[babyalligator.livejournal.com]

that's good to hear (that you didn't think of daria)!

[magcnurserybaby.livejournal.com]

I always think of it as a girls name.

i love Quinn...its great for either sex

[knightanika.livejournal.com]

I hate it. Then again, I hate any names that starts with Q.

[mercuryx-rising.livejournal.com]

I love it :]

Quinn Patrick - *VERY* irish!

I really like the name Quinn (it's more of a boy's name here in Ireland) and it would be in my shortlist except that i work for a company called Quinn's!!!!

[babyalligator.livejournal.com]

we are very limited in terms of names, because of our last name. it's lytle (pronounced LITE-UL). it's difficult to find a name that has a nice ring to it.
so far i'm getting great feedback on quinn!!

[colin-chaotic.livejournal.com]

I like it! I've always thought of it as a boy's name, and it sort of annoys me when I see little girls named Quinn.

[ewaeva.livejournal.com]

Yes! me too.

[arbus.livejournal.com]

i absolutely love it.

[bree019.livejournal.com]

I love it!

[cathkitten.livejournal.com]

I always think of Quinn as a girls' name.

[ewaeva.livejournal.com]

I think it's a good name. I've never heard it as a girls' name - if I didn't read it here, I would never even think of it.

Do you remember a show called "Sliders" from a few years ago? Where a bunch of people travelled to parallel universes? I loved that show when I was in high school :) The main character, played by Jerry O'Connell, was named Quinn. I always think of that show when I hear that name. It's not a bad association :)

[babyalligator.livejournal.com]

i remember that show! i never thought of it! but you're right - not a bad association.

[krazyhippie.livejournal.com]

I like it a lot!

[hopscotchn9.livejournal.com]

I love Quinn but my husband hates it :(

[anapology.livejournal.com]

I love it for a girl, & i can't think of it as a boys name! (though i'm aware it is unisex)
I think it's slightly unusual & catchy.. i like it :-)

[babyalligator.livejournal.com]

a few people have said that they think of it more as a girl's name. but the thing is, technically, it's a boy's name. i've checked it on a few websites, and in our baby name book, and it is listed as a boy's name. but, with the prevalance of unisex names nowadays, i wouldn't be so upset if our boy came home and said he knew another quinn who was a girl. that wouldn't be so bad!

OOh & thinking of middle names:

Quinn Alexander Lytle
Quinn Sebastian Lytle
Quinn Alistair Lytle
Quinn Elliott Lytle

I was thinking along the lines of- you'd probably want a more common, usual middle name.

[babyalligator.livejournal.com]

hey, cool... i was actually toying with alexander too.
they're all great. thanks :)

[ejnost.livejournal.com]

I like Quinn, or Quinton, both very cute

[babyalligator.livejournal.com]

what's "sealab?"

[nfinitemonkeys.livejournal.com]

I like the name. I've never heard of it for a girl, but apparently i'm missing out on some pop culture references? The only thing it makes me think of is "Quinn the Eskimo".

Isn't Quinn short for either Quincy or Quintin?

[babyalligator.livejournal.com]

Isn't Quinn short for either Quincy or Quintin? - it might be, but we just like quinn. it's simple, but important-sounding!
