Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Noah je medzinárodná podoba hebrejského mena נֹחַ (Nóaḥ), tradične vykladaného ako „odpočinok, pokoj“ a spájaného s koreňom n-w-ḥ „odpočívať“. Biblické spojenie s utešením v Gn 5,29 predstavuje slovnú hru s odlišným koreňom n-ḥ-m „utešovať“.

Sources and scholarly methodology: Etymológia: Dictionary of Medieval Names from European Sources – Noah, hebrejské slovníkové heslo s výkladom BDB. Jazykové ekvivalenty: Behind the Name – Noah. Skloňovanie je pracovná analogická adaptácia, nie doložená kodifikácia JÚĽŠ SAV. Konkrétne heslo Noah v publikácii Milana Majtána nebolo overené. Pole diminutives zostáva prázdne, pretože 4–7 ustálených slovenských domáckych podôb sa nepodarilo spoľahlivo doložiť.
