Lovely names. Noah and Euan sound almost like the same name backwards though if you see what I mean?

Noah & Euan doesn't sound quite right to me but the others all work well.

Noah and Tristan = absolutely gorgeous.
Noah and Hugh and Noah and Euan don't work to me.

Sadly I don't think DH will go for Tristan. Still got a couple of months to work on him, though!

Hugh and Euan are too 'vowelly' for me alongside Noah. Tristan is the best of the bunch, like Gwyn too but not sure they 'go' (which of course is really subjective and doesn't really matter!)

I love Noah and Hugh, but I also think its a bit Hu-y. Do you like Noah and Hugo? Somehow that sounds better.

Agree with bigus - I think Hugo in your case is better than Hugh, the hard 'g' helps :)

I like them all except Tristan. Gwyn is really nice and unusual.

I like the sound of Ivo and Hugo with Noah -- the end vowels compliment each other.

Sadly, although names ending in -o work well with DS1's name, they sound really silly with our surname!

I have a Noah Grin We had a DD after him, but if she had been a boy, we had Sebastian or Samuel on the list, I thought they both sounded good with Noah Smile
