Help[Opinions] Re: Pronunciation question
in reply to a message by BrittneyD
I've always said nye-OH-mee (I really dislike nay-OH-mee), but Nomi is a fairly established nickname for the name. Did you see it written out or just spoken?
Additionally, if it was pronounced more like now-mee (as in right now) and the person was of Japanese origin, it might've been the other Naomi in the database, yes?

I either say Nay-OH-mi with the stress on the second syllable or NAY-e-mi with the stress on the first syllable and the middle syllable barely pronounced. I've also heard people say Ny-OH-mi.

It was written out and THEN spoken. I forgot about Nye-oh-mee...I've also heard that pronunciation. I've never heard Now-mee. Interesting.
