I luv the name Ny-ai-sha for a girl, how should I spell it?

- Nyaisha
- Nyaisja
- Niaysha
You will not be able to change your vote.

Before reading your options, the first spelling that came to mind was Nayasia or Nayaisha. I think it looks prettier with the "a" after the N, and I don't think it makes it much more difficult to pronounce.
My spelling choice also depends on how "shh"-y of a sound you want. Do you want it to sound more "zhh"-y like the word Asia? Or more "shh"-y like the word hush?
For simplicity sake, I voted for your 1st option, but I think I still prefer Nayasia. And if you really want a "shh" sound, I might go with your 2nd option or Nayaisha.
I've never heard the name before, but it has a beautiful sound.
Good luck!
Thanks for taking the time to respond. The beginning sound is 'nigh like the beginning of night. And yes the ending is Asia.
Thank you...
