In that case, Naomi gets my vote Grin

I prefer Elodie, which usually rhymes with Melody in English.

Naomi is nice, but the various pronunciations could get annoying.

LOVE Naomi...

MikeUniformMike why comment if you don't like either?

I would go with Elodie.

Astronica · 14/04/2020 00:13

I much prefer Elodie.

87Callista · 14/04/2020 00:16

Elodie
How about Elowen?

POP7777777 · 14/04/2020 00:17

Naomi

SophieInTheSky · 14/04/2020 00:25

Both are lovely but Elodie is very chic and elegant.

SE13Mummy · 14/04/2020 00:29

Definitely Naomi. Under used, beautiful name.

Ellmau · 14/04/2020 00:46

Elodie is pretty but it really going to date.

Naomi is classic.

Violet25 · 14/04/2020 05:40

Elodie.

MsChatterbox · 14/04/2020 05:47

Elodie 😍. I wanted this name but my husband wouldn't agree. So we settled on Eloise 🤣

Thanks everyone! I am still undecided, might just have to wait a couple more months until she is here and then decide. I'm just happy we've managed to get down to two names :)

These were my two top choices OP. We went for Elodie but Naomi is a strong contender for current bump if it’s a girl.

Branleuse · 14/04/2020 12:53

I love both names

Blursula · 14/04/2020 12:54

I love Elodie. However, the Elodie I know goes by Ellie and the Naomi I know goes by Nay... so prepare for them to be shortened by mates! Both lovely names though

Branleuse · 14/04/2020 13:12

The only Elodie I know, gets called Elodie or Ello.
The Naomis I have known always go by their full name

Zinniasout · 14/04/2020 13:14

I massively prefer Elodie which is really pretty. Naomi always sounds a bit moany to me - that 'Oh me!' sound is off-putting.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 14/04/2020 13:15

Naomi.

Megan2018 · 14/04/2020 13:17

Both lovely, Naomi is my favourite of the two

GetTheSprinkles · 14/04/2020 13:24

Elodie is so classic and beautiful
Eloise is similar and one you may like?
I get annoyed how people pronounce naomi in 2 different ways (Nye vs Nay)

Lweji · 14/04/2020 13:31

I like them both, so no help.

justanotherparent1810 · 14/04/2020 14:41

Naomi is a beautiful name

Fivefourthree · 14/04/2020 14:48

I like Naomi best
