Re: Friends' new baby
I love Johanna when it's said that way! It's a hundred times better than Joanna (jo-anna) could ever be. Though I will always prefer Ioana, I think I'm biased ;)Noelle is nice too, though the thing that stops me from loving the combo is the "na-no" sound you get with the end of Johanna and the start of Noelle when you say them together.So I'm rating it about an 8/10 :)

I would agree with your 'concern' if Noelle had the emphasis on the first syllable. Like say, Johanna Nolan or something. But for me it works because the emphasis is on the Elle. But an 8/10 is pretty good!
