Noe

Noe is a form of Noah found in several language traditions and older biblical texts. The Hebrew name is associated with rest. It is often written Noé in Spanish and French, where the accent helps indicate the pronunciation, although English-language records may omit the mark.

The biblical Noah gives the name a clear religious and narrative connection. Noe is not merely a new shortened spelling of a fashionable name; it has its own established history. Its final vowel is usually pronounced rather than silent, making the spoken form an important distinction from the ordinary English word no and from the familiar English pronunciation of Noah.
