“Sharon” quite harsh sounding though isn’t it @Puppilangstrumpfi

I bet all the parents of Keith, Sharon etc thought that their name choices sound 'lovely' too!

I love Noah. Gentle sounding but very masculine. I think the name will always have a lovely sound to it. Names that have dated like Keith and Nigel have horrible twang to them. Noah just sounds really nice.

Puppilangstrumpfi · 30/09/2019 11:00

I much prefer the more classic suggestions of

Magnus
Cassius
Quentin
Torin
Conrad
Rufus

The Bible doesn't protect names from dating Grin

Any name that becomes fashionable quickly eventually falls out of fashion and will sound dated.

I know loads of Noahs aged 15 and under but not s single adult Noah. I predict that people will soon get tired of it.

I disagree that it will date. It's a biblical name. They are classic. The kind of names that date imo are names like Rocco and Milo and Finn that are fashionable but not classic.

I find Noah a bit bland tbh. I also think it’s had its day now.

Magnus
James
Rufus
Rex
Cassius
Rory
Albert
Arthur
Peter

MrsBertBibby · 30/09/2019 07:04

It's very popular and I suspect will date badly.

Conrad
Torin
Tobin

My DS due in 9 weeks is going to be a Noah Smile

milliefiori · 29/09/2019 22:22

Noah is a lovely name.
Also how about:
Jonah
Joshuah
Saul
Elijah

MissHenty · 29/09/2019 22:02

Ahh @emmab96 it sounds like you’ve picked the right name there then 👍

@MissHenty yeah I like a few of them haha just so hard to choose one I mean most likely I'll be going with Noah it's like once you fall in love with a name nothing else seems to compare haha but the names are great thanks

@MissHenty he likes the name too (although when I first suggested it he did make a joke about Noah's Ark) he just thinks we should have more than one option in case once the babies born we don't think he will suits Noah
