Need a middle name for Noa- some say weird but I think it's sweet :)

Me, my husband, and mom all love this unique girl choice. But I need a feminine mn to balance it out. Maybe even one with a bit of an edge to keep up with the FN. Our last name is White. Can’t wait to hear! I have thought of [name]Grayce[/name]- but is it too common? [name]Lilly[/name]- but does it flow? [name]Sophia[/name]- is it too matchy? I need a little creative advice.

I adore [name]Noa[/name]!!! It falls on and off my name list as a NN for [name]Noelle[/name]. Maybe:

[name]Noa[/name] [name]Marilyn[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Jasmine[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Simone[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Faith[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Giselle[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Valerie[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Brooklyn[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Jolene[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Dahlia[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Rose[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Leeann[/name] (I really love this one for some reason :slight_smile: )

Of your choices, I like [name]Noa[/name] [name]Sophia[/name]…Other thoughts:

[name]Noa[/name] [name]Elena[/name] White
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Olivia[/name] White (although her initials wound be NOW! Haha)
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Viola[/name] White
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Rebecca[/name] White

I had debated something similar to [name]Noa[/name] Leighann.
It was [name]Noa[/name] [name]Leigh[/name]- to gibe her the NN Nolee- which I love! I’d like to use [name]Leighanne[/name] to honor my mom whose name is annette- however, I have had negative experiences with some Leighanns haha!

Hubby nixed [name]Leigh[/name] and [name]Sophia[/name] in favor of [name]Grayce[/name]- but [name]Grayce[/name] (esp without the alternate spelling) is too plain for my taste

What about [name]Noa[/name] Gracyn? or even [name]Noa[/name] [name]Grayson[/name]? It could give a more modern flair to [name]Grace[/name].

That is cool!

If [name]Leighanne[/name] has bad associations for you, [name]Liana[/name] might be a lovely way to get the nickname you like while still referencing your mom’s name.

[name]Noa[/name] [name]Grayson[/name] has that surname effect that is pretty cool. I think it’d stand a pretty good chance in place of [name]Grace[/name].

[name]Noa[/name] [name]Corinne[/name] may be another option…?

[name]Noa[/name] [name]Linnea[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Celeste[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Lisette[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Camille[/name]

[name]Noa[/name] [name]Rhiannon[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Caroline[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Madeleine[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Rhianne[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Jessamine[/name]

[name]Noa[/name] [name]Temperance[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Maeve[/name]

I adore [name]Noa[/name] for a little girl. I worked with a [name]Noa[/name] a long time ago, and she was very feminine while still being quirky, independent, and strong. I loved her.

that’s so good to hear! I love it and the nn Noey! :slight_smile: I’m thinking [name]Noa[/name] [name]Kate[/name] might be what we go with. [name]Even[/name] though there is a clash between 1 syllable MN and LN- it is a good double name if she ever decides she doesnt like her FN.

We love it! It is so nice to hear you have had good experiences with it! We love the nn Noey! I think we may go with [name]Noa[/name] [name]Kate[/name]- even with the clash of the 1 syllable MN and LN- it is a cute double name if she ever decides she doesnt like [name]Noa[/name].

I love the name [name]Noa[/name]. It was high on my list for my daughter as well!
I would make sure the middle name is definetly GIRL. [name]Noa[/name] graycon might be confused for a boy as [name]Grayson[/name] is uni-sex. I think the middle needs to be more than 1 syllable because [name]Noa[/name] and White are both 1 syllable. So, [name]Noa[/name] [name]Grace[/name] is out for me.

[name]Noa[/name] is a wonderful choice! [name]Grace[/name] is used pretty often for a middle but with such an unusual first name, a more common middle name may be the way to go. I also happen to be a fan of “common” mn’s (my girls mn’s are [name]Renee[/name] and [name]Mae[/name], classic mn choices). [name]Noa[/name] [name]Lily[/name] I don’t really care for together, how about [name]Noa[/name] [name]Lillian[/name]? [name]Noa[/name] [name]Sophia[/name] is pretty.

Previous suggestions I second:
[name]Noa[/name] Gracyn
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Liana[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Jessamine[/name]

My suggestions:
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Gracelynn[/name]
[name]Noa[/name] [name]Lillian[/name]

[name]Noa[/name] is 2 syllabels.

Is [name]Noa[/name] [name]Kate[/name] too short?

I love Noa Kate. I don’t think the length of the name matters so no, it’s not to short. Easy enough to lengthen though and still have the double name Noa Kate. Just use the formal Katherine.

Noa Katherine, “Noa Kate”

THANKS [name]Jersey[/name]!!! :smiley:

My daughters name is [name]Noa[/name] [name]Olivia[/name]. My older daughter INSISTED on naming “her” baby [name]Olivia[/name], so we compromised with the middle name :slight_smile: [name]Glad[/name] to see other people love the name as much as I do!

Or [name]Noa[/name] [name]Katelyn[/name], flows well!
