Noah . No contest

ABitAsleep · 04/04/2016 14:32

Oliver definitely!

Noah Smile.

Both are fine, but it seems as though every second boy around here is called Oliver - from babies up to teens. I've got a bit weary of hearing it now!

Boring? Hmm because it's popular... I don't think that makes a name boring...

Oliver it's brilliant

These were my top two for DS - we went with Oliver. I'm glad as two sets of friends had Noahs within a week of him being born!

Oliver

SfaOkaySuperFurryAnimals · 04/04/2016 16:10

Like both, Oliver, hands down Smile

Oliver will become Ollie which makes me think of a Boris Johnson type no crass generalisations here.

NadiaWadia · 04/04/2016 16:30

Oliver.

UntilTheCowsComeHome · 04/04/2016 16:32

Noah.

More youthful than Oliver which makes me think of 40 something men who say 'yah' a lot.
