I like Noah - it wasn't a name I considered for DS - just never even occurred to me. My friend's DS is called Noah too.

Who built the ark? Noah, Noah
Who built the ark? Brother Noah built the ark.

I think of this song everytime I hear the name, but I love it none the less.

Noah is a lovely name. Traditional without being boring.

I love it! :-)
I know a Noah and he's totally gorgeous.

At least he didn't go all 'celebrity' and call him something ridiculous, like Flobbity-Woppit Evans

I like it, but not sure about Noah Evans.

If your surname starts with a vowel, then the first name ending with a vowel (or vowel sound) sounds a bit odd to me.

I think it's a lovely name.

Fine but agree with Squeaver probably not the ideal combination.

FAQinglovely · 12/02/2009 08:11

agree with squeaver about the combination - but Noah still a nice name,

I wouldn't use it with a vowel start surname (as already mentioned) but DS was almost Noah and another boy would be. I think it's a really nice name.

Its a great name.
Just lucky his surname wasn't Ark. Though love blackduck calling son "ark boy" - what a nickname!

I love it, but I know a 10 year old Noah and back then I am sure it was quite original - not so much these days.

Really lovely.
Was one of my final choices for ds2

Wow - how rare to get such a positive concensus on an MN baby name thread. Has this ever happened for a name before (let alone a sleb name?) Gold star for Chris Evans and his missus.
