    I voted zero because I don't know any with the longer version, but we named one of ours Finn. I heart the name sooo much. We considered longer versions that could be shortened to Finn, but ultimately decided to stick with just Finn. I haven't met any other babies IRL named Finn, much less any of the longer versions. One of the things we liked about it was that it sounds more common than it actually is.

    Don't know any, but I think Finn was the runner-up in Appellation Mountain's Baby Name March Madness this year!

    There is a baby boy Finley in my moms group and a Finnegan from a coworker. I voted 2 since they both use the nickname Finn. I think it's really cute!

    I don't know any humans named Finley but that's my dog's name and he's a doll! I love the name.

    No one with that name exactly, but I do know 1 girl who named her son Finnegan. I think anything with a nn of Finn is gaining popularity though.

    I don't know any IRL. I think one of Jude Law's kids is named Finley (I remember reading that a long long time ago and filing the name away), and a blogger I read has a son named Finn.

    I'm an elementary school teacher and haven't met or run across any Finley's in the past 5 years, but I - for some reason - think it's "popular". DH was just suggesting it for future child #2 and I was like "No, that's everyone's name." But it's not!

    Love this name! Def not too popular. I do know a Finn (Finnian), he is 8 years old. But I don't know a Finley.

    I don't know any. I've found that online popular names aren't really popular in my neck of the woods. We are behind the trends here I guess! We are planning on naming our LO Charlotte if it's a girl. I've loved that name since I was 13 and used to write my future children's names in my diary! It seems SO popular online, but when I think to IRL - I don't know one single person named Charlotte (and I'm an elementary school teacher!)

    I love the nn Finn!
