Adorable One-Syllable Baby Names
The name Finn is derived from the Irish name Fionn which means "fair." It can be found all over pop culture, which makes it the perfect name to rep whatever fandom you happen to be a part of. For music lovers, there's Finn Hudson from Glee, the hunky football player-turned-show choir member. Hunger Games fans no doubt remember the heroic and handsome Finn Odair. In literature, there's the protagonist of Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn, who bears it as a last name. And then, of course, there's the former stormtrooper-turned-rebel Finn from the latest installments of the Star Wars franchise.
With so many Finns all over the place, it's no wonder that the name is climbing up the charts. Finn is seeing a steady rise in the U.S., and is in the top 100 names for boys in a slew of countries including Belgium, the Netherlands, Austria, Ireland, Switzerland, and New Zealand.
