Is Noveen A Feminine Name?

[humanz]

I just need opinions from people. It's a baby name I was thinking about.

[Mamyalynne]

It's a variant of Novin and generally used for boys.

A stone's throw away from Doreen.

[Zacs-Master]

Sounds more like a Science Fiction computer nerd.

[Mamyalynne]

Novin/Noveen - 'Fresh'

Doreen - 'Gift'

Noreen - 'Light'

[237SJ]

Sounds like an Indian boy's name

[Mamyalynne]

Good luck with your choosing process, it's both fun and frustration I know.

[Cloverjo]

As you asked for opinions, mine is it sounds like an air freshener. Sorry.
Congratulations on the baby. :)

Well I learned today that Jocelyn is also a boys name!

[Cloverjo]

My son has a name that is also a girls' name. When he was little I used to get funny comments and stares when I mentioned his name and gender. Now, I think his peers find it quite cool, and it suits him somehow.
I quite like the name Jocelyn for a boy.
There are a couple of male Jodys, which I quite like, too.

[Smowball]

I'm dying to know your sons name now lol

[-SharonA-]

Sounds like a West Indian name.

[Cloverjo]

Smow, I didn't want to say in case it identified me on this site. But I don't think anyone I work with or live near is on AB. So....
His name is Kerry.

[Smowball]

Ahh that's lovely! What made you choose that- any reason? X

[Cloverjo]

Smow, his dad suggested it and I thought it was a great name. He liked a WWF wrestler with the same name at the time. :/
I had lots of silly names on a list if he'd been a girl.

[Smowball]

Like Bernard?? : )

[Jackdaw33]

Never heard of it. Be very careful what you call your child as he/she will have to live with it for the rest of his/her life.

[Cloverjo]

No, not Bernard. LOL. :)
I'm too embarrassed to say my choices of girls' names. :)

I wonder what the OP still thinks of Noveen.

[Smowball]

Noveen sounds like a medicinal cream to me

[Mamyalynne]

I just presumed they wanted to know more about the name, hence the link.

[humanz]

Well I wasn't expecting people to say it sounds like an air freshener/medicinal cream.. Knowing about the name helps, but I also just want to know what impression people get when they hear the name for themselves.
