Hi, we've finally come to a shortlist and hope we didn't overlook any dodgy issues with the combinations of first and last names or initials. Feedback gratefully appreciated on
Noah Bailey
Or Jonah or Nicholas as a first name
Middle name will be Timothy
Thanks in advance
Robyn

I'd go for Jonah as there are millions of Noahs around now

Noah is our choice if baby is a boy. I was at first put off by how popular it is but it's a beautiful name and I think it's more important to choose one that is right for you than because of a place in the charts!

So Noah for me, second choice would be Jonah, I'm not keen on Nicholas personally.

I love Nicholas, really underused right now, and Nico or Nick are very cool nicknames.

I prefer Nicholas. Noah and Jonah are very 'now' and that would put me off.

Love Nicholas.

Thanks everyone, NB or NTB are ok initials right?

hawaiibaby, I know, everyone on here says Noah is too popular, but I think I would regret not using it

I definitely think it's more important to use a name you love rather than one from the list you don't like as much but isn't as popular - I too think we'd regret it. It's popular for a reason after all!

DH is a David and was one of 2 or 3 throughout school, said it didn't bother him at all. I had an unusual name and hated it so that isn't always what's right for the child!

PS - Initials seem fine to me!

Nicholas Jonah

I love Noah - DH has vetoed it here. It's a lovely name and those initials are fine.
