Possibly spelt 'Naiomi' (prefer the 'nigh' over 'nay' Pronunciation)

She is dark haired and is likely to have a dark eye colour and tan skin.

Thoughts? SmileFlowers

I love it, but only spelled Naomi.

Beautiful

There are lots of ways to say it though- nayOHmee. NAYomee, NOmee. NIGHomee, nighOHmee.

Love Naomi, but hate the "ny" pronunciation.

I'd definitely pronounce Naiomi even more like "nayomi', not 'nighomi'. If you want the latter you could go Niomi. But maybe that's like Nee-omi Grin This is why it's off our list, plus I feel it's a bit 80s. DH loves it though. My friend pronounces it Nair-me which is just terrible and I couldn't stand it.

Love the name Naomi we were going to use it if we had a girl.

BasicBetty · 18/04/2017 15:42

Beautiful name. I prefer the Naomi spelling.

Nice name. I think the nigh-omi pronunciation is more northern, nay-omi more common in the south?
