Do you like the name Neve?

[Anonymous]

It's pronounced "Nehv".

Also thinking about Maytal, Yael, Miriam, or Sophie. We are obviously Jewish And just like the name Sophie.

I like the name but not the spelling.

Not spelled that way! It’s “Niamh”

[Anonymous]

That's the third spelling of "Maytal" I've seen, which is interesting.

I like Neve but don't love it. I think Yael is my favorite from your list, followed by Miriam.

I love it.

The only time I've heard it used is Neve Campbell.

I like it but people will pronounce it N'vey rather than Nehv.

NP but isn't that a completely different name? Neve is "nehve" and Niamh is "neeve" right?

Neve Campbell spells and pronounces it that way. Niamh is pronounced with a long E.

Here's a question about names that I never really understood. Is it that annoying if someone says it wrong? All you have to do is say "it's pronounced Nehv" and move on with your day. Coming from someone who has an extremely simple to pronounce name (Alexandra) and people CONSTANTLY say Alexandria. It's slightly annoying but I wouldn't not pick the name over that.

Also, unless you are Irish I would not spell it "Niamh".

What about Nieve?

I absolutely love Maytal. How else have you seen it spelled?

Of all of those names, I like Neve the best. I really like Yael a lot, but I think it will be mispronounced a lot in the US. And Miriam and Sophie are lovely but more common. Maytal is not my taste.

Nieve and Niamh are completely different than Neve. She said she's Jewish...

Meital and Meytal - both Israeli but living in the US.
