Middle name for Jonah…

54 replies

NavigatingMumLife · 04/03/2024 20:27

Looking for any suggestions for a middle name for Jonah - we tend to like longer middle names that are 3 plus syllables but the only two longer names on our list at the minute are Jonah Theodore or Jonah Gabriel. DH also suggested Jonah Jude which I’m not totally against and I quite like the alliteration - but I just keep thinking a longer name will sound better.

Does anyone have any other suggestions that could work? ☺️

Not sure why but Jonah Jackson was the first to pop into my head! Not usually my style at all but I think it works well

How about:
Jonah Benjamin
Jonah Zachary
Jonah Ezekiel

Jonah Sebastian was the first thing that came to my mind.

I like benjamin best from the suggestions above.

as jonah ends with an ‘ah’ sound, the middle name starting with a strong constinant like a ‘b’ or a ‘g’ or ‘d’ will roll really nicely. Like Gabriel also for same reason, and also sticking with a biblical theme which is cute.

Give over! Clearly they like the name and thought about it as hard as you would for your kids.

43ontherocksporfavor · 04/03/2024 22:18

Well maybe they’re not aware. I’d never want my child to have a name associated with bad luck, would you?

Manyandyoucanwalkover · 04/03/2024 22:43

Jonah is a beautiful name. ❤️

Gabriel goes well and so does Sebastian.

ThisMustBeMyDream · 04/03/2024 22:47

My Jonah is Jonah James.
My first thought from your preferences was like a previous poster, Jonah Sebastian.
As another consideration, although it doesn't meet your preferences, Jonah Jacob sounds nice.

A name is a name, whether you choose to believe stupid superstitions is up to you.

Jonah Louis

Please not Louis…. 1970s(?) Christmas hit Stop the Cavalry was sung by Jonah Louis !!

43ontherocksporfavor · 05/03/2024 06:40

@MaloneMeadow Thats a bit harsh. I don’t believe in superstition. To me when I heard the name my immediate thought was the saying “He’s a Jonah.” in a negative context. Was just giving op the heads up in case it affected her decision. If she’s ok with that there is no issue.

itsgettingweird · 05/03/2024 07:46

My original thought was

Jonah James.

But 3 syllables I like

Jonah William.

But I prefer

Jonah Sebastian
