How to write Naomi in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Naomi becomes ナオミ, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ナ | na | |
| オ | o | |
| ミ | mi |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ナオミ・スミス for Naomi Smith.
