I love when people get asked to choose between two names and they just can't do it. "Maybe if I, a random stranger on the internet, suggest some other names, the OP will change their mind completely".

If it has to be one of them then another Noah.

Noah

Noah.

Parker is Agent Boothe's son in Bones (tv series) and he is an annoying squeaky 'perfect' child that makes me want to vom.

So, definitely Noah Grin

Plus it is a real first name, not a surname.

CoolioAndTheGang · 16/05/2017 23:03

Noah.

Noah. Parker's a bit too American for me, and I'm starting to see it lots on girls too.

Noah. Lovely name. Which does he 'look' like OP?

buttercup54321 · 16/05/2017 22:33

Patrick?
Niall?
Nicholas?

buttercup54321 · 16/05/2017 22:31

Not Nosey Parker. Not keen on Noah either,

Mrsknackered · 16/05/2017 21:47

Noah.
Agree with BillyButt I have a Noah and don't know any other little ones personally, only an adult one.

@hollyisalovelyname no problem with you not liking them (we all like different names!) but probably unhelpful when it's going to be 1 of them Smile

Thanks Back.
Parker reminds me of Nosey Parker and Noah has become so popular.
I did say sorry OP.

BillyButtfuck · 16/05/2017 19:58

I have a Noah, it's a great name. Lots of people say is really popular and over used but I don't know any others!

Go with Noah Wink

Noah

ScuttleBugHug · 16/05/2017 19:47

Noah

This is Parker:

Noah or Parker?
Lemondrop99 · 16/05/2017 19:45

Noah is ridiculously popular, however it's a nicer name than Parker.

Rednailsandnaeknickers · 16/05/2017 19:43

Noah def.

The two Parkers I've met have been little girls, one was North American one wasn't.

Sandsnake · 16/05/2017 19:43

Noah.

MiniAlphaBravo · 16/05/2017 19:42

Noah without a doubt.

Nosy Parker!

MaverickSnoopy · 16/05/2017 19:41

I like both but I think people would hear Parker as in Thunderbirds as opposed to the trendy American name.

So Noah. Or you could compromise..
Poah or Norker? Sorry couldn't help myself, it's been a long day and it's not over yet!

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 16/05/2017 19:41

I'm with you OP. Why comment if you don't have a preference. Really unhelpful.
