I like some of the other names posters suggested better though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2312768 Wed, 07 Oct 2015 14:11:02 +0000 rachiecakes 2312768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Hawk and Talon for boys names.

Ha! ;) I like the name Finch!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2312681 Wed, 07 Oct 2015 12:43:15 +0000 honeybear 2312681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Martin and Jay would be my top picks. </p> <p>Maybe Petrel (and use Pete as a nickname), but I'm not as big a fan of that one because giant petrels are pretty nasty predators and I think spelling it could be an issue. </p> <p>What about Roger for Roger Tory Peterson? Wilson also shows up a lot in my Peterson's guide. :) Will is a nice nickname. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2312652 Wed, 07 Oct 2015 12:04:55 +0000 Greentea 2312652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ellie: Cooper is another to consider.

I think with Fincher you could also call him Fin (or Finn) and I like that too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2304335 Mon, 28 Sep 2015 14:27:59 +0000 Ellie 2304335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Greentea: Iiiiinteresting, I hadn't thought of that one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2304037 Mon, 28 Sep 2015 11:08:11 +0000 Greentea 2304037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ellie: do you like the name Cedar?

I like Wilder. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2296372 Sun, 20 Sep 2015 14:15:32 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2296372@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not a fan to be honest. Finch is better than Fincher though. But in full disclosure I'm not a huge fan of -er names. I like @Rainbow Sprinkles: 's suggestion of Wilder as an alternative! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2296346 Sun, 20 Sep 2015 13:45:12 +0000 hellobeeboston 2296346@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: we are giving our son that middle name!

Fincher doesn't sound like a real name to me.</p> <p>What about Wilder? It has a naturey and birdy ring to it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2296307 Sun, 20 Sep 2015 13:12:47 +0000 JCCovi 2296307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer Finch. I also think anything that starts with a F and ends with -er is asking for unpleasant nicknames. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2296226 Sun, 20 Sep 2015 10:08:02 +0000 hellobeeboston 2296226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like both!!!

We've still got lots of time to decide. Bah, I hate boys names! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2294912 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:45:45 +0000 mamabolt 2294912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: I thought American Pie too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2294910 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:43:33 +0000 Mae 2294910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer Finch to Fincher as well. Although when I hear Finch all I think about is American Pie.... not sure if that bothers you or not lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2294907 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:41:50 +0000 TemperanceBrennan 2294907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I much prefer just Finch. When I first read Fincher I thought it said Flincher. I don't think the -er ending adds anything. For me, it makes the name even more unrecognizable as a name and distances my thoughts from being bird-related. If you like -er ending, I like something like Forester or Fielder better. Even though they aren't directly bird-related, I still get a nature/bird habitat feeling from them that I don't get from Fincher. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2294905 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:41:07 +0000 ms.line 2294905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer Finch over Fincher. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2294900 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:36:59 +0000 rattles 2294900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer Finch. Fincher sounds made up to me. I like Larkin and Starling too for masculine avian names. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2294898 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:36:23 +0000 coopsmama 2294898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly? I don't really like it even though I like most -er names (in fact, my son has one). But Finch is definitely better than Fincher. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2294892 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:33:20 +0000 simplyfelicity 2294892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Finch for sure </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2294891 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:33:15 +0000 yoursilverlining 2294891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There is actually the sweetest toddler girl named Finch at my LO's school! It's a different name, and I definitely prefer Finch over Fincher. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2294881 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:27:12 +0000 pui 2294881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer just Finch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2294874 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:25:20 +0000 blackbird 2294874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yellowbird: exactly what I thought of: pincher </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2294868 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:22:46 +0000 yellowbird 2294868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Reminds me of pincher. I've never heard it as a name but I definitely prefer Finch </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/finchfincher#post-2294864 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:19:02 +0000 Ellie 2294864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're having our first son this winter. Our daughter's name is bird-related and we'd like to continue the tradition, but we're not a huge fan of most boy bird names.</p> <p>I really like Finch (and/or Fincher).<br /> We're leaning towards Fincher and using Finch as a nickname. Fincher sounds a bit more masculine/grown up.</p> <p>Any thoughts? </p>
