Our little boy is still nameless. We just can't decide between Harry or Noah! Which is your favourite and why?

Harry is far more common that Noah. And I like Noah better. Congrats!

Sorry OP, I don't like Noah. I think Harry is adorable, and it's fit for a Prince ! 😄 Many congratulations, on your little one. 💐

Harry, it's a classic. Noah seems a bit wet to me.

I wanted a Harry but my OH surname is Hill and I can't deal with that :')
Elijah is also on our list but Harry is my favourite.. it is more common but also timeless in my opinion

Harry ! (Noah is the Kevin of the future as it is SO now )

Harry is a timeless name. Lots of new Noah's about & it just feels like a weak name for some unknown reason

Noah, definitely.

Harry is so boring.

Harry by a mile. It was DC2's name if she'd been a boy!

User1492602256 I dislike my surname and look forward to changing it when/if we get married! :')I'm 'one of those' I'm afraid.
If I want Harry that badly if I have a boy I'm sure I'll get over the Harry Hill thing. At the moment all I can envision is a big bald head!
