It's so sunny and handsome! I love it! Great name for a boy! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ It ages so well! I love it! Better than the boring, unattractive, mean, super old, old testament names, like Benjamin, Elijah, etc, which I despise! Jonah's out there, be proud of your name!
One of the few Old Testament names I would consider using, it has a strong sound and just a vibe which I really like, prefer it over Noah and Elijah - the other Old Testament names I would potentially use are Samuel, Nathan and Reuben, but this is right up there, great name.

Not bad! Pretty neat, you can’t really go wrong with this name.
Ever since I was little and heard the name Jonah in 'Sleepless in Seattle', I fell in love with the name. The movie became a favorite of mine. Many years later, when I got pregnant I had a mile long list of names for my baby boy... Mateo, Giovanni, Amadeo, Ethan, Leo, Damien, Isaiah, Elias etc. But when he was placed in my arms at the hospital, I knew for certain, he was Jonah! Plus, the name means 'dove' which is a plus. He's 7 now, and it fits him. He's smart, funny and has a big heart. No regrets xxx.
I really like the name Jonah, it's very timeless and suitable for a guy of any age! It's not super common but not awkwardly unique either. It may get confused with John or Jonas though...

JONAH IS A CUTE BOYSSSSS name. STOP TRYING TO NAME GIRLS THESE NAMES! Y'all are trying too hard! Pick a girl name. It is clearly a boy name.

Jonah got eaten by a whale, and personally I think that's pretty neat.

You will have to grow accustomed to correcting people who hear or think the name is Joe, Jon, Jonas, Joseph, or Noah. I love the name though.
I think this name sounds and looks more feminine than masculine. I know that as far as Christians are concerned, it's traditionally a boy's name, but I personally place it right up there with Meredith as sounding more appropriate for a girl (hey, I live in North America; give me a break). Both the -ah ending and the meaning make it sound feminine to me. I suppose I could compromise and use Yonah on a girl instead of Jonah. But I really like that J. For a boy, I'd use Javan. It means the same thing as Jonah, but it sounds a little more masculine (although it could also work on a girl).
This is my son's name. We call him Jo or Jojo for short. We picked it because the Bible story is meaningful to us, and makes it known, but it's still not too common. He's always the only one in his class with it, but nobody has trouble pronouncing it.
I like this name. It's really sweet for a little boy, it works for a teenager, and it doesn't sound stupid on an elderly man. You can't go wrong with a Bible name like Jonah.
I quite like the name Jonah. It's very cute. I wouldn't name my son Jonah probably, but I AM using this name in a fan fiction story I'm writing. I thought the character needed a biblical name.
I like this name alot, if you wanted to, you could even call your son Jon for short if he doesn't like the name Jonah! But I like Jonah and I might use it if I ever have another kid. But only for a boy.
I like the name Jonah, it is very pretty. But, I wouldn't name my son this, or my daughter. Maybe it is a little too pretty.
