Neveah- I'm confused

KatteyKattey
in Baby Names

I keep seeing this name used as an example and it brings a few questions for me.

1) How the devil do you pronounce this name?

2) Are there really people out there naming their child this?

    I don't know any IRL. Feels like a bump urban legend, except the SSA backs up that the name is out there.

    I know at least one kid with Nevaeh as a middle name. My cousin used it for her first.

    First time I ever heard this name was on 16 and pregnant.  I think it may have snowballed from there.  Who wants to spell heaven backward anyway?

    TY ladies, I'm a little less confused now. And I must still be mentally reeling from the cold I had yesterday not to have noticed it was Heaven backwards. Normally I'm so much more observant than that. Lol

    How could you not notice? That's what makes it so cool.

    I know a little girl named Nevaeh and at Babies R US they have monogrammed cups with this name. It's actually becoming very popular.

    Unfortunately, not a legend...I went to high school with a girl who named her daughter Nevaeh.  My sister is actually pretty good friends with her and she was pretty shocked at the name choice.  Super cute little girl too!  She's currently pregnant with her second, and I'm guessing an -ayden is on its way...HA!

    A co-worker of mine who just had her first baby this past January named her daughter this.. Nevaeh Marie. *SMH*

    It's definitely not an urban legend; check out the threads here. I know a 4 yr old named Neveah.

    Hmmm.. I always thought it was pronounced Nee-vah.
    My sister lived and taught school in New Zealand. I saw a few Niva's (pronounced n?e-vah)

    LOL!! It feels like an urban legend because no one who would use that name would come to this board! :)
