If you think it's more of a girl's name, what do you think of using the name Quinlan for a boy with just the nickname as Quinn?

Sounds like it's a mix of opinions.
For a boy then, what do you prefer...
a. Quinn
b. Quinlan
c. Quentin

I think its completely Unisex. Doesn't imply gender one way or the other. I think whatever you choose will be fine, because these are all beautiful names. good luck!

I think it's a boys name. And I love the idea of having Quinn stand for something, longer, like Quinlan or Quentin.
I would go for Quinlan, it is unique but still cute (and has a good nickname- Quinn) but I also really like Quentin and it is mroe traditional
good luck! :)

I've heard the name used for both. I prefer it for a boy, though. I don't like the name Quentin, but Quinlan and Quinn are both nice.

Quinn is for either... but I actually like Quinlan for a girl, too. I hate nicknames though... If you use the name Quinn - fine. But if the name is Quinlan, then Quinlan is what the kid should be called.

I named my daughter Quinn. We've run into a few boys named Quinn, but no other girls.
I like Quentin for a boy.

Could be either. I don't think it's better for one than the Other. Quinn is a pretty girls name. I like just plain Quinn

The mighty Quinn is all boy to me. ;) And although some might argue that Quinn is unisex, as a surname, it actually stems from Cuinn (Anglicized Conn), which itself is strictly masculine.
So really, Quinn doesn't strike me as any more feminine than Reilly, Logan, Ryan, Finley, etc. Certainly, you can find girls with these names, but it doesn't make them feminine. It just means those parents prefer masculine names, and that's fine.
Quinn is definitely masculine. ;) I also like Quincy, if it's a longer, strinctly-masculine form you prefer.
