Naomia Origin and Meaning

The name Naomia is a girl's name.

Naomia is a feminine name that appears to be a variation of the Hebrew name Naomi, which means 'pleasantness' or 'my delight.' The additional 'a' ending gives Naomia a softer, more flowing quality while maintaining the essence of the original name. This variant spelling has appeared occasionally throughout the 20th century but remains relatively uncommon. Naomia carries the same biblical associations as Naomi, who was Ruth's mother-in-law in the Old Testament, representing loyalty and perseverance. The name combines traditional roots with a slightly distinctive presentation, appealing to parents who appreciate the meaning and history of Naomi but desire a more unique version for their daughter.
