i am 27 weeks...
& i think i like the name Noah Alexander...or Noah Mathew.

but. i change my mind so much!
so whenever people ask i just say i don't know..

i don't want something too normal...or too crazy...

Braysen is another idea but I don't like that it doesn't have much of a meaning behind it...

& i am deciding on my own, fathers not involved....SO

anyone have any suggestions? or like Noah??

thanks for your help!

If the name has meaning behind it for you - i say go for it.
Braysen is nmsaa - like pp said - it looks made up (maybe brayden, brady, bryce, brenden, brandon, etc)
I like Noah Matthew better than Noah Alexander (I can't figure out why though - it must be a past association that i can't think of right now)
Good Luck

I think Noah is cute, but I'd spell Matthew with two T's if you use it as mn. I think I like Noah Matthew a little bit more, just because NoAH-ALexander is a bit repetitive of that A sound. But both options are nice.

On the other hand, I'm sorry, but I really dislike Braysen. It doesn't have much meaning b/c it is a made-up name, which I don't like. Brayden/ Aiden/ Kaden/ Zayden, etc. is such a BIG trend right now that I would avoid being part of it, it is tired and overdone. Braysen is just a take on Brayden.

I don't have time right now, but I'll come back to make suggestions.

Good luck with the pregnancy!!!

I like Noah very much! Some names that seem similar, style-wise, to me, are Jeremiah, Isaac, Isaiah, Wyatt, Bennett, Joshua, Josiah, Owen and Seth.

Braysen is not my style, at all. It has that made-up look (to me, just an opinion), and it will instantly be lost among all the Bradens, Braedens, Braydens (and the rhyming Cadens, Jadens, Kadens, etc.), on the one hand, and the numerous, numerous -son and -sen names (Emerson, Bryson, Brycen, Jameson, Jackson, Grayson, Greysen, etc.), on the other.

I really like the name Braysen....I have a unique name and i really enjoy not having the same name as others all the time. I have never heard the name braysen...i think that's why it really stuck out to me If you do decide to go with Noah i like mathew for a middle name

i need help with names also....except i don't have anything narrowed down. I'm looking for a boys name that starts with the letter "J" Any ideas???

While I like Noah and Alexander, I think Noah Matthew flows better.

I also like Noah Alexander it sounds very boyish and seems like it would age into a very handsome man.
