Naomie is Hebrew in Origin.

Naomie is a French-influenced variant of Naomi, a feminine name from the Hebrew Na‘omi (נעמי) meaning “pleasantness” or “delight.” In the Book of Ruth, Naomi is Ruth’s mother-in-law, a figure whose story anchored the name in Jewish and Christian traditions. Via Greek and Latin biblical forms (Noemi), it entered European usage and later English naming.

Naomie occurs chiefly in Francophone contexts and, by extension, in English as a modern spelling; the base form Naomi saw English use from Puritan times and again surged in the late twentieth century. Related forms include Naomi (English), Noemi (Italian, Spanish, Portuguese), Noémi (Hungarian), and Noémie in contemporary French. Diminutives and nicknames include Nomi, Mimi, and Nao. Though phonetically identical, the Japanese given name Naomi has separate kanji-based meanings such as “honest” or “straight” plus “beauty.” A well-known bearer is British actress Naomie Harris.
