An alternative to Noah needed..!

As its just too popular, and sorry girlies but its about to surge with the masses too- in 2014 theres a blockbuster out called 'Noah'. Many huge names, Russell Crowe stars as Noah (ugh), Sir Anthony Hopkins is in it and I think its going to be huge.

www.imdb.com/title/tt1959490/

Can anyone suggest names with a similar 'vibe' to Noah we may like??


Many thanks x

Wasn't because of Chris Evans?

Noah is such an awful story though, I don't get how people can look past all the slaughter and evil, and use the name.

See here / and here.

I have only ever met 1 Noah so would hardly call it popular here. Every child round here is called Zack with a brother called Max or Sam.

What about Boaz? (pronounced Bo-az). It sounds a bit like Noah and it is a biblical name (Old Testament), like Noah. Boaz was a rich farmer.
