These are our final 2 and it's definitely going to be between these ones as it took ages to even get here.

Noah or Cooper?

Noah . Cooper is terrible. Noah very common now.
Nicholas?

I don't like Noah but would go for that as don't like the American names/surnames e.g. Riley, ELLIS, chase

Noah

He'll get called Coops... Cooper is a surname. On a par with calling your daughter 'James' IMO. Not great.

I went to 2 secondary schools, one was called Cooper an the other was shortened down to Noah. I think I really don't like either because of that but if I had to pick from them it would probably be Cooper just because there isn't as many.

Not so many Coopers though.

That's right. I wonder why Grin

IvyLeagueUnderTheSea · 19/03/2017 00:00

There are a lot of Noahs about at the moment.
Not so many Coopers though.

Noah, i feel this name is going to become a standard, classic name. Also it's hard to draw opinions about a Noah, they can make the name their own.

Gummibears · 18/03/2017 07:52

I don't like either, sorry.

If I had to choose, then Cooper

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 17/03/2017 21:41

Cooper. I'm tripping over Noahs

TheresABluebirdOnMyShoulder · 17/03/2017 21:17

Cooper reminds me of the dog that eats the ice cream in that YouTube video.

I quite like Noah (it was on our shortlist) but it is a bit Marmite. I know lots of people hate it.

LemonBreeland · 17/03/2017 21:16

Cooper. Biased as I have one. He also loves it.

Agree

What flogging molly said I'm afraid

Floggingmolly · 17/03/2017 21:09

They're both awful. But Cooper more so.

Babasaclover · 17/03/2017 21:06

Cooper is very American. Do you have American roots? If not then stick with Noah.

Sophronia · 17/03/2017 20:30

Noah

BarInSpace · 17/03/2017 20:28

Noah. Classic, and not a surname.

SuperBeagle · 17/03/2017 20:22

Cooper. Smile

Love this name.

Cooper is a surname, a tradesman making barrels and a small car. Not a boys' name!

And Noah is a deluded old man with a beard who herded up two of every animal and put them on an ark.

Reow · 17/03/2017 20:16

Noah x1000

CPtart · 17/03/2017 20:15

Cooper is my friends dog's name and my son's friend's surname.
Noah is my most hated boys name.
Couldn't possibly choose.

WinterRose92 · 17/03/2017 19:30

I really like Cooper 😊

redexpat · 17/03/2017 19:30

Noah

Not Cooper!

Noah is lovely.
