Jonah Hill

Cute, chubby, blonde, perhaps a bit shy, outdoorsy.

I like it (like names starting with 'J'). However rejected 'Jonah' as it's synonymous with someone being a jinx.

A Mormon in a suit.

Jonah from Veep, who is tall, self obsessed, incompetent etc.

Only the guy with the whale. The belly of a big fish. Running away from God. Ha! How did that go, Jonah?

Floppy dark haired skinny teenager. Clever but doesn't show it. Very good at guitar. Probably has his own indie band. Never gets angry.

Totally invented, But that's how I see him. I like the name.

A vegan child who has long hair, doesn't wear shoes and covered in mud from playing outdoors

It means bad luck, jinx - it's in the dictionary as a word. It's from the Bible story.

I know a little Jonah in real life so it makes me think of him.

I think it’s a cool name.

A bit wet with v. religious parents. Sorry Sad

Twillow · 02/09/2018 21:52

It's like a byword for a jinx or bad luck isn't it?

Korvalscat · 02/09/2018 22:17

Eaten by a whale and generally unlucky/a jinx.

Tallace · 02/09/2018 23:28

Jonah Ryan (from Veep)

American. Religious, like the Duggars. Or Mormon.
