Choose between these two..

Thinking about potential names for dc2. Which do you prefer: Jonah or Noah, Lydia or Tabitha?

Jonah and Lydia

Jonah I like but mostly chose it by default because Noah is just so overused for me.

Lydia I love!

I love Jonah but the few people I have mentioned it to say it's very 'unusual' or think I'm saying Joanna. I think the nickname Joey is quite cute as well.

Jonah and Tabitha. Have a Jonah and have had nothing but good feedback. I love Tabitha and it was on list for a girl....

Oh do you Bellands? I do love it. Have you met many others? I can't work out why it's not as popular as Noah.

Beelands! Annoying autocorrect!

Noah and Lydia

Can't say my actual dd's name as it would out me but DH vetoed my favourite of Susannah. Also loved Esme.

Would have gone for Jonah if dd had been a boy, I think. Love it! Noah is too popular now - it was on my list for dd1 though.

Jonah is rising in popularity (names.darkgreener.com/#jonah), so it's unusual yeah but it's not exactly CRAZY!

I've met two others.... one a friend of a friends kid and the other was in swimming class. Both about 5

Years old.

Noah and Tabitha. Also love Matilda.

Jonah & Lydia. Other 2 too popular for my liking.

Jonah (but I prefer Jonas) and Tabitha

Jonah and Tabitha

I also prefer Jonas.

Noah and Tabitha.

I knew a Lydia and she used to get called "Lydia Chlamydia" all the time. Have hated the name ever since, sorry.
