An awesome, happy, funny, gorgeous boy with a beautiful future ahead! (Can you guess I have a Jonah!) 🤣 funnily enough he is gluten intolerant! (As per pp!)

Jonah Lomu, the rugby player!

Adore it. Cool and not as popular as Joshua and Noah. Was really tempted DS but found another name.

MrsMolehillMountain · 31/08/2018 20:28

A cool muscular surfer with floppy hair

bridgetreilly · 31/08/2018 21:43

Good, kind, solid. I think it's exactly what I'd want my son to be.

Flamingosnbears · 31/08/2018 21:45

I met a sweet boy called Jonah a few years ago...

OutPinked · 01/09/2018 07:46

Chubby and a bit awkward.

I think Jonah Hill clouds my judgement Grin.

PenelopeThePufferfish · 01/09/2018 09:27

Wholesome Americans - outdoorsy, good looking and religious!

BigBlueBubble · 01/09/2018 09:29

Religious. And possibly a bit tubby like Jonah Hill.

inquiquotiokixul · 01/09/2018 09:37

I went to a music gig once where one of the songs had the refrain "middle class kids with biblical names" and I wish I could remember the rest of the lyrics.

I would expect a child called Jonah to have friends called Joshua, Jeremiah and Joel and for them all to be very niace polite young men who hold doors open for adults and offer to carry the shopping.

Sunflower321 · 01/09/2018 10:23

Isn't he the bringer of bad luck?

PenelopeThePufferfish · 01/09/2018 10:32

I think he’s only the bringer of bad luck on boats! But even that’s not that well known now I don’t think.

KreigersClones · 01/09/2018 10:33

Long blonde hair, guitar, hippy, probably smokes loads of weed

WhereIsMyDressingGown · 01/09/2018 11:31

A small boy with cool curly hair. I like the name.

IsadoraQuagmire · 01/09/2018 11:44

Jonah from Summer Heights High. But also, lovely Jonah Lomu Sad

Anonymumtum · 01/09/2018 11:48

Someone who brings bad luck

HopeGarden · 01/09/2018 11:49

An unlucky boy who should stay away from boats.
