Noah, out of the two. I was a person who got teased at school and I can practically guarantee he will be called Ass at some point. I love the sound of Ace-a (if that's how you're pronouncing Asa) but in a way I almost think Acer would be a better option than Asa, just from the spelling point of view?

Asa definitely. Noah is becoming really popular and seems a bit 'safe'

Haha Asa is my husbands name!! He does have people (as demonstrated above!) who struggle to pronounce it, but if you prefer less popular names go for it. He’s always called Ace and I think that’s pretty cool, as I think he is ace 😉

Asa. DH wouldn't let me use it!

Phebes · 23/01/2019 20:47

Definitely Asa! Love it. Pronounced “AY-sah”

tammytoby · 23/01/2019 20:47

Asa is much nicer and less overused

erja · 23/01/2019 20:47

For boys? I've only heard Aza (Ay-za) for a girl? Not sure how I'd pronounce Asa?

Sexnotgender · 23/01/2019 20:43

Asa sounds like a company? How is it pronounced, Ass-a?
