guys I'm crushing hard on Noa at the moment, for a little girl. wdyt?

 

combo wise, my first thought was Noa Lillian Louise. I also like Noa Madeline Ruth or Noa Florence Ruth. any more combo suggestions? what do you think of what I have here?

 

thank you, all!

I kind of think that it is cute, but at the same time it just seems like an incomplete spelling of Noah. I wouldn't suggest using the spelling Noah for a girl though.
I just don't really know where I stand on this name. I do like some boys names on girls and think it sounds pretty cute, but at the same time it just looks incomplete to me, like there should be more to it or something.
I do like the combo Noa Madeline Ruth, sound wise a lot, but Noa just looks incomplete when written down to me. I really LOVE Noa as a nickname for a little girl, but I have no idea what it could be a nickname for.

I'm not really a fan of Noah/Noa on either gender. I agree with Annie, Noa is cute but it does look unfinished (though the Noah spelling wouldn't quite be right on a girl).

Thank you x10,000 for honest opinions!!

Despite how it may seem, Noa and Noah are actually unrelated names.

Noa was a girl in the Bible who spoke up for women when they had no voice, so I guess my good connotation comes from there. I'm not really worried about spelling because it seems to be a familiar name most places; it's popular across Europe it seems and it's been the #1 name in Israel for quite some time. 10 years I think. It also has some roots in Hawaii and Japan.

This has been a guilty pleasure of mine for a really long time. It is adorable in both of your combos!

I think it's absolutely adorable, but I just relate it to Noah immediately. And I couldn't name a little girl after my [semi-ex]boyfriend.

I'd love to see it on other peoples' children though, so I'd say go for it!

Noa IS super popular in Israel, both with older people and young children, so it definitely ages well.

I don't find it weird or incomplete at all, but then again, I from Israel so it's a totally normal name to me. 

 

I really like your middle choices, and despite adoring Florence, my favourite is probably Noa Madeline Ruth. (Very biblical!)

 

I also am a huge sucker for Norah and Noah, so I guess liking Noa was just bound to happen.
