Re: Popularity...
in reply to a message by Domestic Engineer
I tend to go for classic rather than popular, and I don't think Noah counts as a classic. Certainly not where I live. The fact that you love it should suggest that, at the moment, it appeals to people. And if you've got two children already and you don't know any young Noahs, then perhaps you inhabit a Noah-free neighbourhood and could safely go right ahead and use it.
That said, what puts me right off is the loud NO! at the beginning. Same as the I in Ivor and the ME in (some versions of) Megan - it sends a message I find unsuitable whenever the name is said.
