[Opinions] Noa
Noa has really been growing on me as a name lately. How do you feel about it? I'd probably use it for a middle name.

It looks like a misspelling of Noah so I don't think of it as a girl's name. It looks incomplete without the "h".
I used to really like Noah for a boy before it blew up. Then I got tired of hearing about it. Somehow Noa for a female feels much fresher but I'm also noticing it explode in places I creep on. It's even used on a TV show I watch. So, I'm not sure how I feel about it anymore. I think I'm still enjoying it but I'm getting close to sighing at it.
Noticed a clear up tick in interest on this name, doesn't appeal to me, but seems okay for a mn.
The name feels unfinished without the H.
This is a name I considered for my daughter. It means 'motion,' and my child was always active in the womb. She's still a constant whirlwind of movement. I was afraid, though, that she would spend too many years explaining the spelling of her name and that it wasn't a boys' name.
My problem with both Noa and Noah is that they start with a clear, loud and unmistakable NO!
I think it's cute, but not my style
Personally, I wouldn't use it as it doesn't appeal to me. However, I do prefer Noa for a girl and Noah for a boy.
I only like Noah, for a boy
