I can’t decide which name I like best. Her middle name will be Elizabeth and last name begins with a C.

Love Naomi. Best when it's NAY-omi not Nay-O-mi.

Amy.

Amy! Lovely!

I love Naomi.

I went to school with a Naomi, everyone used to call her 'I-moan' (Naomi backwards).

These were my two names 13 years ago! I couldn’t decide either. Baby was a boy so didn’t have to. Grin I remember him being born and it didn’t occur to me to check between the legs, I just looked at his face and thought “well you don’t look like an Amy OR a Naomi!”

Amy. Like Nay -omi rather than Nigh-omi but all the women I know with that name are nn Nay which I don't like.

Naomi for sure.

Every Amy/Aimee/Ami/Amie I've ever known has been a bitchy mean girl.

I know an Amy Elizabeth and she's brilliant Smile Amy for me!

Amy

Both beautiful, elegant names.

I prefer Amy.

The problem with Naomi is that there are several ways to pronounce it, which could be annoying when people get it wrong.
