I know Nevaeh isn't popular on this board but I have to admit I find it rather beautiful.

Would you pronounce it neh-VAY-a or neh-VAY? Well, neh-VAY makes more sense to me because Nevaeh is "heaven" spelled backwards and the word heaven has two syllables, not three. Still I always hear it as neh-VAY-a. How would you say it and what would be more correct?

Do you think it's tacky or trashy? Why? I know it's a made up name but all names were made up at some point. It only bothers me when people spell it Neveah.

---

Does it remind you of the brand Nivea? When I first saw it it looked biblical to me, maybe because of its similarity to Neriah and Mariah.

---

Is it common where you live? How many do you know and how do they say it?

Thanks :)
