Love Jonah!
Think Caleb would go really well!
Also love Rowan from your list.

I know a Jonah and Reuben which I think is great.

Caleb, goes well.

DoinItFine · 03/09/2016 16:45

Ezra

Also like Caleb suggested above.

I like all your names but my favourites (aside from Jonah) are:

Elijah
Leo

In that order.

Mark
Noah
Alexander
Thomas

Nothing that sounds like Whale. Cos that's what your thread title puts into my head! Blush

CandyMcJingles · 03/09/2016 16:58

Tobias
Eli
Zachariah
Nathaniel
Barnaby

jenniuol · 03/09/2016 17:00

Joel
Jude
Zachary
Isaac
Asher

GoldFishFingerz · 03/09/2016 17:00

Leon rather then Leo

PuppyMonkey · 03/09/2016 17:01

The Whale? Wink

lovelilies · 03/09/2016 17:02

Grin me too, villain

ifcatscouldtalk · 03/09/2016 17:06

I thought Elijah before opening thread and reading your list. The suggestion of Ezra also sounds very well matched with Jonah.

Justput- it actually means dove which I associate with peace which is quite nice.

Thanks for your suggestions. Love Jude and Joel, they were on the list first time round, but don't feel I can have another J name (dh is also a J!)

Also love Ezra as love OT names but do they sound a bit too 'religious' together?

I love Jonah!

I'd pick Elijah from your list, or Leo.

HettyB · 03/09/2016 18:39

I know a Jonah and Noah, if you like a biblical water-based theme.

sonlypuppyfat · 03/09/2016 18:48

I like Ira and Caleb

isitseptemberyet · 03/09/2016 19:38

i Adore Jonah and Elijah, think its a gorgeous sib set :)

nat73 · 03/09/2016 20:34

Rowan is cool :-)

KeepOnPlodding · 03/09/2016 22:37

Seth or Noah?

daisydalrymple · 03/09/2016 22:45

Elijah came to mind before I read your suggestions Grin, but they do sound very religious together if you are trying to avoid that.

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 03/09/2016 22:51

Caleb or Elijah.

I think Caleb would probably be slightly better as Jonah & Elijah do both have the same "ah" sound at the end.

chocoLit · 03/09/2016 22:53

Caleb. Before I even read your list.

Haffdonga · 03/09/2016 23:00

If you're very Christian then go for Elijah but if you're not I'd avoid any very obviously biblical names (like Noah).
