Jeremiah
What do you think of the name Jeremiah? How do you like it versus Jeremy? I don't like the nn Jerry, so it would probably be in the mn slot. What do you think of the combo Robert Jeremiah?Also, what do you think of these names, generally speaking?Nahum
Amos

I think the Duggars have a Jeremiah Robert, so it reminds me of them.

I really like Jeremiah. I like it loads better than Jeremy. Jeremiah has a lovely flow and was less common when I was growing up.I would never think to call Jeremiah, Jerry, honestly. So I think that could be some what avoidable if you liked it as a first name.I think Robert Jeremiah is classically handsome. I do prefer Jeremiah Robert, though.Nahum isn't a name I'm familiar with enough to like, I'm not even sure how it is pronounced.However, I have always had a soft spot for Amos. It conjures up the image of someone wise, gentle, but strong.

"....was a bullfrog."Just kidding. I like it. Tons more than Jeremy. Jeremiah is strong, Jeremy is whiny as all get-out.

I love the name Jeremiah, but because of the possible nns, I too prefer it as a mn. Robert Jeremiah is alright, though I am not a big fan of Robert. Nahum is a name I have not really given much thought to, but it's alright. I like the meaning. Amos I like a lot. It's a name that is so rare, but quite nice really.

I like plain old Jerry the best. It makes me think of ice cream and a certain mouse. Out of Jeremiah and Jeremy I'd take Jeremy. Robert Jeremiah isn't my style... Not big on either name. I once heard a horrid song on the radio, which I later found out was by a rapper named Jeremih, a name already disliked. Jeremy makes me think of germs.Nahum - Not sure how to pronounce, but if I'm saying it right - nice enough.
Amos - Love this.Hope this helped!

Jeremiah sounds masculine and ruggedly handsome yet traditional because of the Biblical name sake. I don't care for Jeremy. It sounds immature and weak compared to Jeremiah. Robert Jeremiah is okay. Nahum and Amos sound a little to old testament to me. Even though Jeremiah is also from the old testament, it sounds less dated and harsh some how.

I love, love, love Jeremiah and I actually think Jerry can be sweet. Robert Jeremiah is a nice name.
