I don't actually think I want to use it but wondering what people think of the name Judah (for a boy).

Saw it last night on the credits for 30 Rock and it's stuch with me.

I like Jude but feel it's not a whole name IYKWIM? And obviously Judas is out laughing2.gif

I dislike Judah and Judas. I love Jude but only as a middle name.

I like Jude... love Jonah... but Judah and Judas make me think of betrayal sad.gif but that is just my opinion!

Judah is okay but I much prefer all of your other options. You have some really good ones with the others.

Judah is the name of several Biblical and historical figures(fourth son of Jacob and Leah). Judah means "Praise".

If you like to go for traditional name then "Judah" is fine.

I prefer Jude, or even Jonah which is similar.

I really like Judah, Jude and Jonah.

Actually I very much like Judas too, I just wish everyone else could get over the whole 'betrayal' thing.

honest option is that all i can think about is the whole betrayal thing too. blush.gif sorry. It's just such a strong association.

However I really don't think Jude even comes close to being associated with Judas. Jonah is great too.

Not too bad - sounds very biblical though and reminds me of Playing Beatie Bow (lovely book wub.gif )
