Where my name takes its origin

As you can see, my name is Noemi. I really like my name (thanks mum!! :D). When I was a child, here in italy it was a rare name. Infact, when people asked me "What your name?", and I answered to them, they said to me: "What?" but after I repeated my name they said: "Wow, that's beautiful". I'm so proud of that! Anyway my name has an interesting origin, that personally I love. In Hebrew can be translated as Naamah. I fell in love with it at once so I decided to take it as nickname.
Well, it's explained how it is born now. :)

Naamah or Na'amah (comes from Hebrew: נעמה‎) is a demonic legendary creature, the mother of divination. How she became a demon is unclear.
Naamah is used as a female given name in contemporary Israel. Literally, it means "Pleasant One".
This name is borne in the Old Testament by both a daughter of Lamech and a wife of Solomon. Some later Jewish texts give Naamah as the name of Noah's wife, even though she is not named in the Old Testament.
