Opinions on Noel?

[Justinny]

What do you think of the name Noel?

It's Okay, I don't dislike it.
I prefer it reversed, Leon.

I really like it.

Love it, but only for a Christmas baby (in case that needs saying).

Love it. My lovely, crazy granddad was a Noel so I'll use it somewhere in my boys name if I ever have one.

It makes me think of Noel Edmunds.
I prefer Noelle on a girl.

Will you pronounce it nole or no-all?

My Dad, lovely Grandad and cousin are all Noels. Love it.

Dislike it. Was really popular in Ireland in the 70s so sounds ultra dated to me. Also Noel Edmonds. Also it rhymes with hole.

Sugarpie I was going to say I prefer it reversed too - Leon is nice.

I really don't like Noel. I don't like names beginning with 'No' it seems. I dislike Noah too.

And Noelle is just as bad.

Like it, and Joel.

Edmonds

I like it, it's not very common these days so sounds refreshing.

DramaAlpaca, me too. 🤔

Bit dated. Edmunds.

My nephew is noel (not born near Christmas) after Noel Gallagher :) he definitely suits the name it's lovely

It makes me think of Edmunds/Mr Blobby too, but them I am quite old

It just doesn't roll of my tongue well.

The Christmas thing is a non issue. (And that's from me-my name is January, I was born in June....)

It's fine till he has a house party.

Not a fan, although I love Joel.

Really dislike it.

I have met two very nice adult Noels recently. It doesn't have to be a Christmas name. I like it.
