Need a specific culture or background or can I just free-associate?

I like:
[name]Naomi[/name]
[name]Noemi[/name] or [name]Naomie[/name]
[name]Niamh[/name] (pronounced Neee-v)
[name]Neve[/name] (pronounced Nehv)
[name]Niobe[/name] though the mythological person was rather tragic.
[name]Natania[/name] or the more phonetic [name]Natanya[/name]
[name]Noelle[/name]
[name]Nigella[/name]

[name]Nicola[/name]

My favorite N name is [name]Nadia[/name] and it has a beautiful meaning-- it’s Russian for hope.

[name]Nicolette[/name] was on my list for a while, and I have a friend with [name]Nanette[/name] as her middle name - clearly I like French names.

I’ve always liked Nadege - it means hope and [name]Ive[/name] always thought it was beautiful (its related to [name]Nadia[/name] which is nice too)

niteowl13 · March 10, 2012, 9:12am

My fave is [name]Neve[/name].
For something different, my hubby’s niece’s name is Novalea. Or it could be spelled Novalee. Sooo pretty!
Some other pretty N names for girls: [name]Nadira[/name] and [name]Nerissa[/name]

My favorite is [name]Nadia[/name], definitely! She’s both sweet and a bit exotic, and I love that it means “hope”. I also love the very Russian counterpart, [name]Nadezhda[/name].

I’m not sure I’ll be adding any new ones that haven’t been mentioned yet, but I have a thing for these:

[name]Noelle[/name] (and [name]Noella[/name]/[name]Noelia[/name]/[name]Noeline[/name]… sort of even [name]Noelani[/name])
[name]Natalie[/name] (can’t really use it as it’s my sister’s name, but I think it’s timeless and pretty, and I am absolutely in love with [name]Tallie[/name]/[name]Tali[/name] as a nn! [name]Natalia[/name] is also pretty)
[name]Naya[/name] (personally prefer [name]Anaya[/name] and [name]Amaya[/name] to this, but it is nice)
[name]Norah[/name]
[name]Nia[/name] (although I prefer it as a nn for something like [name]Zinnia[/name]…)
Noralise/Noreliese (not sure how you would actually spell this, but I know a little girl named Norelys–said like [name]Norah[/name]-[name]Lise[/name]. I think it’s really sweet)
Norabelle (a bit too over-the-top for me, but I still like it)
[name]Niamh[/name] (although I like this as a nn for [name]Genevieve[/name] more than a name on its own, personally)

I also sort of like [name]Nahla[/name] and [name]Nell[/name] (but not [name]Nellie[/name]!), and [name]Navy[/name] is a bit of a GP for me (although I’d never use it–all the guys in my life are [name]Air[/name] Force–I think I’d get slaughtered, lol!).

Good luck!

Far and away my favorite N name is [name]Nuala[/name], pronounced NOO-la

I’m surprised how many folks love [name]Naomi[/name] – it feels very dated and 80s to me

[name]Nicolette[/name] is also lovely, and [name]Nora[/name] is current and timeless and strong

rollo · March 11, 2012, 1:37am

I suggest [name]Nerissa[/name]

nicole_1024 · March 11, 2012, 8:01am

[name]Natalia[/name] was the first that came to mind for me.

Others:

[name]Nell[/name] ([name]Nellie[/name])
[name]Naomi[/name]
