I currently have an Eleanor (Ellie) and a Noah and am expecting ds2 in six weeks time. I love the name Jonah, but my dh says it is too close to noah. What do you think? I suggested Jonathan with nn Jonah, but he is still not convinced. Ideas or suggestions please!

Yes. I was planning on it. Planned ruined by a girl!

I wouldn't. How about Jude? Or Issac or Zachary.

Eleanor and noah are close to me too.

I think they are fine together.
Might like Josiah and Tobias as well.

Very biblical.

Are you religious? There is a bit of a theme there.

No

kiwiscantfly · 08/03/2016 23:28

Too close for me I'm afraid

I like Jonas too.

Xmasbaby11 · 08/03/2016 23:22

Love all three names!

Noah and Jonah is fine! They're individual people and beautiful names. There was a thread the other day about brothers called Angus and Rufus-a completely badass combination imho, as is Noah and Jonah. Slightly jealous I never thought of Jonah....

Joel?

Vixxfacee · 08/03/2016 22:49

What about Jonas
