I say Nev-ay...but I know some pronounce it Nev-ay-ah. To me 'aeh, has the same pronounciation as 'eh, if it was 'eah, it would be A-ah.
Hope that makes sense.

If you go to www.babynames.com and look it up, you can hear the pronounciations.

I pronounce it ch-EE-zee.

Sorry, I just can't stand this name. It's usually said kind of like nuh-VAY-uh.

I'd assume nah-VAY or nah-VAY-ah, but it's a made up name so you could pronounce it BOB if you wanted. :-/

Huh? Oh come on, someone could pronounce Charlotte as "Bob" if they wanted to; there's no law against it; but most names, whether recently created or not, do have a pronunciation which bears SOME resemblance to their spelling. :)

I have certainly heard "neh-VAY-uh" as the most common pronunciation of Nevaeh.

You don't.

You might even provide a Heaven for them. We need You for that. Hell we can make for ourselves.

I actually met a real person with a real 6 month old daughter named Nevaeh the other day. Shock!
Anyway, they pronounce it Ne-VEYE-uh...

Shouldn't Heaven backwards be spelled

h-e-l-l? That's what I always think of whenever I see this name.

Generally, one does not. However, if forced, it's usually nuh-VAY-uh.
