Help[Facts] Re: Noa-pronunciation
in reply to a message by cwheeler
I see, this is a different name altogether, I didn't realise this.
NOA has the stress on the second syllable and the Ah-sound is longer. As this site states the name is probably connected to the Hebrew verb "nua" (nun-vav-ayin) meaning "to sway" or "to roam, wander". God says to Kain: You will be a homeless wanderer (na' vanad) on the earth.
