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.

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?

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

I just meant that's why I always think of it as a boy's name, because it's a shortened version of other boy names.

my husband actually suggested we call him quincy. like, uh... what other quincy can you name other than quincy jones? while i have nothing against QJ, i certainly wouldn't want my son's name to be synonymous with a famous record producer, know what i mean?

It makes me think of John Quincy Adams, but I may just be a dork like that.
