As long as Noemi is prn no-EH-mee, it's my favorite, though I like Naomi too.

I prefer Noemi. No idea why, sounds better.

They're both gorgeous. I prefer Naomi because I think the pronounciation is more intuitive. Noemi is more unusual and I think a lot of people would comfuse it with Naomi, which is pretty common here.

Naomi because Noemi has always seemed awkward to me.

I like them both!

Definately Noemi

However, I pronounce it "no-WAY-mee".

Naomi's more natural to me and standardized, but Noemi's ok. I like the sounds for Naomi better- whether said Na-o-me, Nay-o-me or Now-me. It's prettier.

Noemi

There are few names I like where the long "o" sound is stressed. Naomi has always sounded so awkward to me. Noemi is much more elegant.
