I like it.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 27/04/2017 15:44

Yes, but it's one of those names, that people tend to spell and pronounce wrongly.

Sophronia · 27/04/2017 15:47

It's lovely

floraeasy · 27/04/2017 15:49

I do like it.

I only recently discovered it was biblical. I am not familiar with the bible. It doesn't sound that old iyswim.

It's very pretty though IMO.

PlymouthMaid1 · 27/04/2017 15:55

I think it is really pretty but the ones I know always get called 'Nay' which doesn't sound so good.

FeedTheSharkAndItWillBite · 27/04/2017 15:57

Yes :)

CakeRattleandRoll · 27/04/2017 16:06

Yes. A lot.

SissySpacekAteMyHamster · 27/04/2017 16:09

Love it.

DramaAlpaca · 27/04/2017 16:09

Yes, I like it.

ClarkWGriswold · 27/04/2017 16:10

I like it too

mummabubs · 27/04/2017 16:10

I'm a Naomi (so a tad biased!) I'd say it's a good name 😉

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 27/04/2017 16:12

Yes I like it I know two - one 25 one 50+.

Skp87 · 27/04/2017 16:53

Lovely!

Branleuse · 27/04/2017 17:18

i really like it

MaryPoppinsPenguins · 27/04/2017 17:23

I've only known one and in high school was told 'your name is I Moan backwards... etc' every single day. That would put me off...

user1459464195 · 27/04/2017 17:42

Love it and it's my top pick for a future DD.

Jooni · 27/04/2017 18:36

Yes, I really like it.

There seem to be several slightly different ways to pronounce it though which would put me off. I say "nay-OH-mee", but I've heard "NAY-uh-mee" and "NYE-oh-mee" too.

I love Noemí (Spanish) and Noémie (French) as well. It's a beautiful name and never overused.

Marlboroandmalbec34 · 27/04/2017 20:42

My oh decided he loves this name and I really want to love it too but I cannot decide if it's pronounced Nay-omi or Ny-omi

Riderontheswarm · 27/04/2017 20:43

Yes!

IllMetByMoonlight · 27/04/2017 20:50

Such a pretty name. One of a few which I still get little pangs of regret for not using, despite it being in my top 5. Lovely!

bibbitybobbityyhat · 27/04/2017 20:51

Yes! Fabulous name.

isittheholidaysyet · 27/04/2017 20:54

Yes.
Was high on my list for DD as my DSs have biblical names.
But DH doesn't like any girls names it.

BigBairyHollocks · 27/04/2017 20:54

Really really don't actually,sorry.

Skp87 · 28/04/2017 06:45

Thanks for feedback x
