The noble gases all have stable electron configurations. Because of this they do not bond with other elements. They got their name 'noble' because they don't like to mix or relate to other elements. For more information look here:http://scienceworld.wolfram.com/chemistry/NobleGas.html
Because they're located on the very right of the Periodic Table, meaning that they have full outer shells. What atoms "want" in a reaction is to have full outer shells, so noble gases don't react with any other elements. Therefore the name "noble gases". Too noble to have any kind of contact with anything else.
Because they usually don't engage in chemical reactions with other elements. ( Shows their nobility)
(to rephrase) Noble gases are chemically inert, which is to say, they do not undergo chemical reactions. As such, they are metaphorically compared to the nobility who would not lower themselves to associate with the common people. Noble gases, like noblemen, are aloof.
Noble gases are elements which are chemically inert; they do not tend to engage in chemical reactions. This suggests that they form a higher class of element, like a nobility, which does not lower itself to bond with lesser elements.
They do not readily react with other elements. One meaning of "noble" is chemically inert.
Noble gas is translated from the German noun Edelgas. It was first used in 1898 by Hugo Erdmann to indicate their extremely low level of reactivity.
Noble gases - because they are practically unreactive.
Noble gases do not react chemically with other noble gases.

Gases, hence noble "gases"
There are no metals in noble gases.All are gases in noble gases.
Definitely not! Gases are not semiconductors. and the noble gases are not conductors even if frozen.
They belong to group 8A, more commonly referred to as the "noble gases." These gases are so named because they are extremelynonreactive,referring to nobility's preference for not dealing with any of the lower classes.
Noble gases do not normally form compounds.
Noble gases do not react chemically with other noble gases.

Gases, hence noble "gases"
The Group 18 elements are called the noble gases or sometimes inert gases. Wikipedia has information on the noble gases, and a link is provided.
it's not
Noble gases are chemically inert.
There are no metals in noble gases.All are gases in noble gases.
Noble gases are so named becasue "noble" describes the unreactive nature of that group of elements. All of the noble gasses have their outermost electron levels filled up (helium has 2, neon and argon have 8, krypton and xenon have 18, and radon and ununoctium have 32). These 7 known noble gasses don't usually form compounds with other elements, since valence electrons determine the elements' abilities to form covalent bonds with other elements valence electrons.
All noble gases are gases in their standard state
All the members of the noble gases family (group 18 of the periodic table) are gases at room temperature.
