Baby Names

Finley Sage

DH said a coworker named their baby girl this.  They are going to call her Finney.  Yay or nay?  I do not like it at all, personally.

Re: Finley Sage

  • Nay, what's the point of calling her Finney when her name is Finley?

  • Although Finley has never truly sat well with me, I can live with that.  I love Sage.  What bothers me is the nick name...that is really horrid!

  • I had to open this post to find out if it was a boy or girl.

  • I don't see the point of that nn.  The name is nms but it could be worse. 

     

     

  • I don't like this together. It doesn't give me a clear indication if its a boy or a girl. I like Finn for a nn, but Finny isn't my style.

    I like the name, but the nn seems silly. It will probably get shortened to Finn when she's a little older anyway.

  • Finney as a nn for Finley?? That's like the girl (yesterday?) who was naming her girl Elle, nn Ellie "for short". (Sorry if you are reading this!) 

    Also, Finney reminds me of Albert Finney (Annie, Big Fish).

    Also, I'm not crazy about the name Finley, unless there is Irish blood somewhere in the family.

  • It sounds like an ingredient in a Barefoot Contessa recipe.

  • I don't like it. It's far too unisex for my taste (and I like Morgan for a girl). There's nothing about that name that indicates the sex. Anyway, I don't like Finney, either. It's just all around blah for me.

    Me too.  The only Finley I know is a boy, but I was guessing Sage put it in girl territory.  I don't like the nn Finney.

  • Finley is NMS, Finney reminds me of "Fanny", but I LOVE the name Sage.

    OMG yes! Stephen is going to love it!

    Finley nn Finney is just so silly there are no words. I like Sage as a MN.

  • Well I guess I'm a big fat YAY! Because my Daughters name is Finley. Finley Belle. But we can her Fin, and I hate Finney- family tried to use this as her NN and I stopped it before she was born. Cause I'm not a fan. And I love Sage and wanted it for our middle name this time if we have a girl. But DH isnt a fan.

    I just have to say that your baby looks like a precious little fairy. Sooooo adorable. That hair and perfect porcelain skin just melts my heart.
