The final 2 - help me pick between them!

[happytobemrsg]

Finally got DH on board with Asa. So it’s either:

Asa Michael; or
Ezra Michael

as a little brother to Noah.

Ezra seems like a safer choice because it’s more common though Asa is very beautiful too. A little worried there will be pronounciation issues with Asa but I just love it. Is Asa too “out there”?

Asa is a character in the sitcom Still Game. She's a woman, so for me Ezra.

@Connieston that's Isa, not Asa

It's pronounced like the tree, Acer, or the laptop brand! Lol.
I think Ezra flows better.
Know both an Ezra and an Asa.

I love both names, there's no bad choice here. Personally I'd go with Ezra but that's mostly because I'd get frustrated with constantly correcting people saying "Ah-sah" instead of "Ay-sah" which I think is likely to happen.

Sorry but I'm not keen on Ezra, I like Asa and think it's quirky but in a good way x

Asa is too much like Ass in my mind. Exra is nice and goes well with Noah

People will think of Asda or ASAP if you chose Asa

Ezra is a lovely name anyhow

Ezra gets my vote

Asa

Both lovely names.

Personally, I like Ezra with Noah... but I think it is quite popular at the moment, so if that bothers you Asa is also nice.

Ezra

Arghhh it’s so difficult. When most people were favouring Ezra I think I felt a bit disappointed- maybe that means I secretly prefer Asa? No idea

Never heard of Asa and would assume it was a girl’s name.

I love Asa.

Asa
Asa
Asa
Asa
Asa

I love Asa!

No-er-nazer

Is how it would be pronounced where I live and I think that would annoy me if they were my DCs

Of the 2 I do prefer Asa but maybe not the best match with noah?

Ah! I stand corrected! It still carries a bit of a feminine twang for me, which of course doesn't matter remotely in big scheme of things

Ezra

What about Easa? Best of both.

Ezra.

The pronunciation of Asa wasnt intuitive to me. And I think it will be full of struggle and possibly bullying too.

Ezra is really nice!

Asa is a really old name, just not used as much anymore. I know of one, and I’ve seen it suggested on here a few times recently so maybe it’s due a come back?
Ignore the comments about bullying, what a load of rubbish 🙄

I much prefer Asa.

Asa is a king in the bible.

Asa much better. Ezra is horrible
