They both have massive potential for being misspelt. It's hard to choose.

If you hadn’t described it then k would have no idea how to pronounce the second one and would still struggle to spell it.

so for that reason Noa although it seems a bit weird as a made up ‘female’ version of Noah?

They are both established girls names dating back hundreds of years there's a female Noa in the bible.

I prefer Noa. Have you thought of Nia (Nee-ah), it’s the Welsh form of Niamh I believe.

I'm not keen on either of them. Noa is too close to the overused Noah, and Naia is what Mia used to be, an airport.
