Any suggestions?

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Spell it the way it is!

Or maybe you could just name her Imoan so that when everyone is reading her name backwards they say Naomi?

Please don’t. It’s already a name that has to be spelled all the time, why make it harder?

Na7omi.

Jusy tell people it's a silent seven.

@Kanaloa

If you don’t like Naomi then choose a different name, rather than misspelling Naomi. It wouldn’t be an ‘alternative’ spelling, it would be the incorrect spelling.

Margot, Eden & Phoebe have the same sort of vibe as Naomi to me. I do like Naomi though.

Don’t tempt her to start “improving” the spelling of Phoebe.

I wouldn't worry about the I moan thing. Lots of names rhyme with something or spell something backwards, but still get used, including very popular names.

Most people will quickly learn your pronunciation - I have a colleague Naomi who pronounces it Nigh oh me so that's how I pronounce her name. A relative's DD pronounces it Nay oh me so that's how I pronounce her name.

If you like it enough to use it I would keep the Naomi spelling.

@TheBuggerlugs
Does that mean I have free rein to say what I want? Grin

Pnaomi. The P is silent, like in pterodactyl and pesudomonas.
