Spelling Nevaeh


I really love the name Nevaeh (neh-vay-ah), but I'm not a fan of the spelling. Do you have any recommendations for alternate spellings? Thanks for your help!

I'm not sure because the only times I've heard of this name being used it was because it spelt "heaven" backwards so never seen it spelt any other way xx

Nevaia/Nevaya/Naveja(totally weird, but thought I'd put it down anyway). I'm just typing it out as many ways as I can, lol. Umm... Naveia. That's about all I can come up with. It's mostly just placements of the a's vs. e's vs. y's. Good luck.

How about Naveya?

Although i personally think it should only be spelled "Nevaeh" bc i love the fact that it spells heaven backwards!

I love the name but not a fan of the spelling either, I'd spell it Nevaya personally.

Don't really like the name tbh, always found 'heaven' backwords thing a bit odd. Have you thought about Niamh? It sounds quite similar.

Thanks for all the comments. The thing is, I like how the name sounds, but I don't like the spelling. Couldn't I just spell it differently? The reason I like the name isn't because it spells "heaven" backwards...I'm just wondering if there were alternate spellings. Your suggestions are great. Thanks.
