NOAH or OSCAR, which one would you choose

[kerryk]

not me but for a friend

she is due to give birth any day and is convinced it is a boy, these are the two names she loves but she cant decide between them.

she cant use them both as she wants to give her dads name as a middle name.

she has a normal plain last name and her dad has a normal plain name as well, which one would you go for.

Oscar. Noah is too biblical for me.

Oscar at a push. Like them both v much

Noah. It's ds1's middle name and I love it - kind of wish we'd gone for it as his first name.

i like them both as well so not much good to her.

Noah, love it, and a friend has a Noah and I am very fond of him too, so I like the name even more

Oscar

Oscar.

Noah, on the basis that there's an Oscar on Eastenders at the moment (actually I think both names are lovely).

Noah definetly

Both good but would go for Oscar

Oscar. Noah is too linked to the Ark in my mind, which is not terrible, it's just not for me.

They are both a little trendy but Oscar is a stronger sound. NOah is a little weak-sounding to be a boys name. JMO

Oscar

I love both but would go for Noah as it's not as popular

noah

oscar the grouch springs to mind even though its lovely

Ask her what she thinks of Victor. I think Victor will be the new Oscar.

It's in that borderline youmustbejoking grey area now. Give it five years.

I've always had a soft spot for Victor. And Vincent.

especially Vincent

Both, could not decide.

Noah, but only because we have got a pony called Oscar - I like them both!

Spot on MadameCholet.

Keep clear of Old Testamnet nmaes unless Jewish.
Oscar is the name of that vain mincing offspring of Barry Humphries which is sufficinet to provoke kneejerk reaction of 'God noooooo way!'

don't like Oscar

Noah is v popular in these parts

Noah
