I've had several small .380s, including the Kel-Tec P3AT and the Runger LCP. (Had a little Kelgren .380, too.) I didn't enjoy them, but there are times when they fill a need nothing else will fill.
I just ordered a Remington RM380. (It's a version of the RohrBaugh P380 which got good reviews.
I got the one with a polymer frame, and it may give me the same trouble the Kel-Tec P3AT did -- slammed my trigger finger during recoil. (If so, I'll probably use a heat gun to ENLARGE the trigger guard a bit.)
After ordering, I wondered if I should have gotten a metal framed version... Too late, now. Here's a review of the Rohrbaugh 380 from the web: https://www.guns.com/news/review/rohrbaugh-r380-review-what-the-r9-shouldve-been
I don't expect FN to come up with a small .380.
