Hannah?

Hiya I'm very early days pregnant but as my son was nameless until 5 weeks I thought I'd start thinking early lol.

What do we think of the name Hannah? I like it but don't know if it's a bit plain and 80s born baby? I'm an 80s baby and know lots of Hannahs.

Also surname is H do we love or hate alliteration names?

Finally can I have a Hannah if I already have a Noah? Bit of a mouthful and matchy maybe?

Agghhhhhhhh! I just noticed you have an H surname!!! That's a lot of of 'H' s Confused

Hannah is a palindrome and therefore a wonderful name. Can you stretch out the pregnancy and give birth on the 4th of oct. Then the date will be another palindrome 4/10/2014

You could have Eve as a palindrome middle name.

How about Anna, less aitches.

Lovely name, fine with Noah.

I prefer spellings Hana and Hanna, but I think it's a nice name.

I think it is a lovely name, but not with Noah Nd not with an H surname.

Not my favourite name tbh. But more importantly with an H surname and Noah going on it's a lot of 'huh'.

I don't think it is a mouthful. I think they go well together and I think Hannah is a lovely name!! Even if you didn't think they go well together it's not as if you will be saying their names together all the time? My children have a similar sound at the start of their names but I loved DDs name too much not to use it, despite it sounding a little similar to her brothers.

I love the name Hannah and know two and they are lovely but not sure about Hannah and Noah, definitely too matchy....

I've never met a nice Hannah.
