There's a boy named Noble at my school, and he doesn't seem to have any problems. I think it's usable today for sure. It was never super common, so it's not really dated.

I love virtue names so I definately think this could work. I also think it sounds like the kind of name that, after you meet the person, you wouldn't even think about it. You would forget that "Noble" is also a word.

I know a little Jeremiah whose middle name is Noble. I think it's great! I don't know how it would work as a first name...maybe!

Probably not good in this day and age...

Like!

I recently was playing around with it. I don't think I'd use it as a fn since it's too wordy, but it makes a wonderful middle name! Oliver Noble was the best combo I came up with.

I like it :) I probably wouldn't use it, and if I did it would be a mn, but I still think it'f cool.

I knew a Noble. He was a child in my class when I was student teaching and he's eight. So I think it can definitely be used today and I don't find it old-fashioned at all.

Unfortunately for me, the Noble in my class was well-known as being the troublemaker of the group and nearly got himself expelled from the (super religious private) school several times since entering it. So I certainly think names like this can backfire on the bearers.

Love it!

Really, I've thought about this name a lot (I went to high school with a girl named Nobl; she was Azeri or something), and I like it for either gender.

I like it! If Faith and Grace can be used for girls, why can't Noble be used for boys?

Sounds like a name for a dog to me, but it's a nice male virtue name.

Honestly, I think it's a little silly. I can't help but picture a Noble growing up to be a dishonest or disrespectful person, which I think is a catch-22 with a lot of virtue names.

Adjectives as FNs seem a bit awkward sometimes.

Or titles, like Prince or Bishop.
