Noa/Noya

[fluffymouse]

Currently pregnant (only 10 weeks but I have a feeling its a girl). I'm looking at Israeli/Jewish names that are easy for English people to pronounce.

So far I like Noa and Boys. What do you think?

Suggestions welcome for other girls (and boys) names.

Looooove Noa. Seems so sophisticated and grown up but still works well for baby/toddler.

Noya not so much, and as demonstrated in OP it autocorrects to Boys ;) makes me think of the 'word' 'annoyer'

Noa auto correct to now!

Its nice.
Nola? Noemi?

Lol autocorrects do all sorts to non standard names. My dd's name autocorrects to something rather funny, but its not something I would base a naming choice on.

Take the point of Noya the annoyer.

Noa is pretty. Noya has a much harsher sound.

Noa is very pretty. Not so keen on Noya.

I came across the name Nera in a names book once, apparently it means something to do with being born at Channukah - I really liked it but we are not Jewish so it would have been vetoed!

Other suggestions: Eliana, Tamar, Anit, Ilana.
