Meaning & origin
Noeh is a modern respelling of the biblical Noah, first recorded in the U.S. in 2004. It remains extremely uncommon, with a rank of 10,695 in 2025 and only about 1 in 284,679 newborns receiving the name. The name reached its peak popularity in 2017, and its trajectory has been rising since 2020, suggesting a slight uptick in interest. Unlike its parent name Noah, which has been a top choice for decades, Noeh's spelling variant is a niche choice that appeals to parents seeking a distinctive update on a classic.
Noeh is a variant spelling of Noah, derived from the Hebrew name Noach, traditionally interpreted as 'rest' or 'comfort.' In the Bible, Noah was the patriarch who built the ark. The spelling Noeh has seen occasional modern use, particularly in the United States, as a creative respelling of the classic name.
