Naomi, Poppy or Romy?

[sunndaze]

Thoughts welcome!

Naomi is my favourite and Romy sounds nice (assuming it's pronounced roe-me) but my first thought as someone who hasn't heard it was "I wonder what that's short for" as it sounds more like a nickname.

Naomi is best, then poppy. Don't like Romy.

Naomi or romy

Naomi would probably be my least favourite of your options but I do still like it. It's a beautiful name and looks so pretty written down. I just think she'd be forever correcting the spelling.

Poppy I love! Surprised at how against it some people are on here, it's a gorgeous name and works at any age. Ignore the folk who say it wouldn't work for an older lady, of course it bloody would. It's a really pretty name and classic too,

Romy is my favourite of your choices! Reminds me of Romy and Michelle which I loved so it's an easy favourite for me. Unusual without being weird and sounds lovely too!

I know a Naomi who is known as Nomi. Might that be an option?

Knew an absolute bitch called Romy so that’s a hard no. Poppy is childish, has to be Naomi.

Not Romy. Johnson’s choice for one of his DDs, I wouldn’t touch it.

Poppy is Ok.

Naomi is nice. I also like Noemi.

Poppy gets shortened to pops which was always a name for a fart when I was younger!
Naomi is lovely

Naomi would be my choice. Only Poppy I know is a dog (a lovely one though).

Naomi is an absolutely beautiful name.
Not fussed on Romy. Don’t like Poppy.

My only childhood nickname was Nay :)

I've had name compliments throughout my life including in an interview recently.

Naomi

I would agree that Naomi is hard to remember how to spell when you don't have to spelt it often. A nickname that could come from Naomi is Noni as it sounds similar. I'm not sure about Romy, maybe go with Romilly which is nice and see what nicknames come from it naturally.

Romy

Naomi although having read its Moan backwards has put me off!
Don't like Poppy (Poppycock) and hate Romy as it sounds like someone couldn't say Rosemary
Natalie or Natasha?

Naiomi is lovely! Not a big fan of Poppy.

I really like Naomi.

Poppy reminds me of Poppy Bush, which was what George Bush I's grandchildren called him. (I suspect it was actually "Papi").

Romy is nice, too - it's also a stand-alone girls' name in Hebrew (although probably more often transliterated as Romi), so not always a shortening of other names like Rosemarie, Rosemary, Roma, Romilly, etc.

I think Naomi is ok but sounds a dated. I know quite a few who are around my age (late 30s).

Poppy is nice I don't agree with people saying it's childish I know full grown women called Poppy, Daisy and Rosie and I don't think of any of them as childish.

I love Romy, it's my favourite and makes me think of Romy Schneider. It's also the most unusual of the three, so not everyone will know it and how to pronounce it whereas they'll be familiar with Poppy and Naomi so it depends how you feel about that. Having said that the Naomi's I know pronounce it differently and that seems to cause some confusion too.

My Poppy gets Poopy sometimes, or stroppy Poppy (she can be :P) but never Poppycock! 😂
I'm surprised how many are so against Poppy. Obviously I think it's a fab name and we know a few others, I think it's a really fun name, easy to spell, not confusing to pronounce, no obvious nicknames... although we do call her Pops, Pop Pops, Popsy dopsy etc
Also think it's brilliant for any age, she's not going to suddenly stop suiting her name as an adult is she? I always think that is a silly argument against a name!

Poppy.

Love naomi

I like them all but Poppy is my favourite

Naomi is beautiful.

(Gnome is a cute nickname!)

Not at all. I met a 20 something Poppy. It sounds nice. It goes so well either certain surnames. I say this because I have a surname many things clash with!

I love Naomi! I think Romy sounds a bit nicknamey/insubstantial somehow (but might be a nice nickname for Rosanna or something?) I usually like flower names but I don't really like Poppy, it sounds kind of soppy to my ears and also reminds me of old men since I've heard a lot of Americans call their grandad 'poppy', 'pop-pop' etc.
