I like Jacob and Jasper.

Noah is just too children's biblish for me to fully comes to terms with.

I do know a couple of lovely little Noah's though so obviously this problem is mine.

i like jasper, was on my long-term names list but DH vetoed it..

Flumpybumpy · 10/11/2008 12:47

Noah

DS is Noah. I like Caleb better, and don't think I could go for Barney due to the popular purple dinosaur

Love 1 3 and 2 in that order. My nephew is a Noah, lovely gentle sounding name.

Don't like Barney purely because it makes me think of the purple dinosaur or a labrador puppy.

I wouldn't know how to pronounce Kaleb, and that puts me off.

MrsHappy · 10/11/2008 12:44

I like Noah and Jasper the best from your list.
I do not like Kaleb at all, but probably would if it began with a 'C'.

MrsSanta · 10/11/2008 12:43

Barney
love it love it, its fab

SoupDragon · 10/11/2008 12:43

Noah - Like it althou that's how BabyDragon says "NO!" so it's kind of put me off

Jacob - Like it

Jasper - Not keen

Barny - Dear god no! Think of the satanic purple dinosaur!

Kaleb - No. unless it's spelt properly with a C.

overbuurvrouw · 10/11/2008 12:42

I like Barney and Jasper best from the names you've listed.

belgo · 10/11/2008 12:42

I like Noah and Jacob. Jaspar is ok. Don't like Barny and Kaleb.

VinegarTits · 10/11/2008 12:42

i like Noah

FimboGotAxed · 10/11/2008 12:41

Noah or Jasper from that last.

I think Barny is spelt Barney.
