About Finnley
This variation adds a second n to the more popular Finley, presumably to provide a more direct link to nickname Finn. Both spellings create a distinctly unisex name. The Finnley version, however, entered the US Top 1000 for boys in 2014, and it remains unranked for girls.
Pronounced FIN-lee.
As of October 2026, Finnley ranked #757 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #591 in 2021.
Editor's take: The name Finnley is a boy's name meaning "fair-haired hero".
