I don't think it's an awful name, but it's not in my top 10. I think it's popular in the US mostly because most americans (who aren't Jews or devout christians or biblical scholars) don't know too many old testament characters, only big stars like Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David and Daniel. Here in Israel it's usually seen as an old people name, but it's been coming back recently. (A lot of oldschool names have been coming back, but perhaps Noah specifically has been getting more popular because it's popular in america.)
