I'd rather a 'boring, overused' Thame, than a hideous one, no one has heard of!

Noah

WavingFlag · 05/04/2016 07:57

I like both but would go with Oliver.
I work in maternity and every other baby boy is Noah at the moment.
Can't recall any olivers lately tho.

Narp · 05/04/2016 07:50

I agree with Pipil

Sorry

I prefer Oliver

SleepyRoo · 05/04/2016 07:50

Noah. Nice name. Also Ollie isn't , to my ear, a nice nn, and it's inevitably used.

Pipilangstrumpf · 05/04/2016 07:47

Both are overused and I find them both a little dull/boring as a result.

Oliver. Both nice though.

BertrandRussell · 04/04/2016 22:34

I just asked DS who's 15. He said Noah because Oliver is trendy.

applecatchers36 · 04/04/2016 22:30

Oliver by a mile, Noah seems very faddy and of the moment, think it will date.

Floggingmolly · 04/04/2016 22:27

Oliver.

321zerobaby · 04/04/2016 22:26

Noah. Oliver is that boy who asks for more.

Noah isn't more popular! Oliver is No. 1 Smile

Both names really popular but Noah is more popular right now so for that reason I'd go for Oliver. Not really that keen on either although I did like Noah when it was less popular.

WanderingTrolley1 · 04/04/2016 21:22

Oliver.

thereareworsethingsicoulddo · 04/04/2016 21:16

Oliver Smile

iemma321q · 04/04/2016 21:14

Noah. Oliver is frequently shortened to olly which I'm not keen on.

nectarini1983 · 04/04/2016 20:47

Noah! But both names too popular for me.
