Meaning: Beautiful, good-looking; Pleasantness

Your little one is obviously going to be the most beautiful baby around, so it's only right that they have a name to match. Noam, a gender-neutral name that has Swiss connections and Hebrew origins, means "beautiful” or “good-looking." With Switzerland having the 10th largest Jewish community in Europe, it’s no wonder that many of the country’s popular names have Hebrew roots. Although similar in sound to Noah, this name has a more distinctive look and feel. Noam was traditionally a masculine name, but it's been growing in popularity as a name for girls, with more parents seeing the appeal of the traditional feel. Noam can also translate to “pleasantness,” always reminding your little one that their true beauty comes from the inside.
