Help[Opinions] Re: Take a whack at this pronunciation........
in reply to a message by Gizette
Could be an ethnic name. Mom's name is Crisoilla. Or maybe her parents liked Crisco oil? Who knows.... Naomi is nice, at least. And the baby is adorable. :) She has that going for her, lol.

It's Igbo Nigerian
"Chinwe" means "God owns", and "-otuto" probably comes from "Otutodilichukwu" meaning "Glory be to God" (see here: http://snipurl.com/cy4s).
I don't have any problem with it since it's ethnic and presumably from the parents culture. Combining it with Naomi is unusual...but at least it's a great name! And since the father's name is Alex, and presumably they're African-American, maybe Naomi is even a family name.
