I love the name Jonah because it's not that common, but I want to get other people's honest opinions. Some have told me that the first thing that they think of is the whale story from the bible. How about you? What are your thoughts/opinions? And what do you think about the whole name...
Jonah Nathaniel Reed
or we were considering, as an alternative...
Noah Gabriel Reed
What do you think? Thanks.

They are both great names, in my opinion! I slightly prefer Jonah over Noah, only because it is less common. I absolutely love the name Gabriel.
I think my favorite of your two combos is Jonah Nathaniel Reed, but I like Jonah Gabriel Reed best.
Good luck to you!

When I named my 4yr old son Isaiah many people told be it was very biblical, Its you and your husband that have to decide the name. If you like it gohead, I personally think Jonah Nathaniel is very nice.

I like Jonah, great name. It just doesn't fit with Nathaniel in my mind. Try something with less syllables

I love the name Jonah but I don't see it fitting well with Nathaniel.
What about Jonah Daniel? Jonah Ryan? Jonah David?

I love Jonah, I'm expecting, and Jonah Daniel is our pick for a boy.
