Reply to: Alternatives? by MoCro
Some weeks ago I was watching the BBC News and a youngish man was interviewed on Orkney, one of the remote isles of Scotland which has Norse heritage - his surname was something like McLeod and his first name was Thorfinn
I'd never encountered that name before but I find it is a bona fide Norse name and it might make an alternative to Finn if you wanted to take the nordic route!
Still, Finn is so established as a name now I don't think that's necessary.
