Noa

The name Noa is a girl's name of Hebrew origin meaning "movement, motion". This Old Testament female name has been one of the most popular girls’ names in Israel over the last decade. Also highly popular in Spain and a new entrant to the US Top 1000, it may be misunderstood here as an attempt to streamline and feminize the more familiar Noah. Nonetheless, Noa's rise to the charts indicates increased interest in this sleek moniker.
