Na'ama was temporarily formally renamed Na'omi for several years, after which the name Na'ama was officially restored.

History
According to ARIJ, in 1979 Israel confiscated 5,048 dunams of land from the Palestinian village of An-Nuway'imah to construct Na'ama.[3]
Na'ama was established in 1982 [1] and thus named due to its proximity to the Palestinian village of an-Nuway'imah, before being renamed Na'omi after the biblical figure of Naomi.[4] The original name Na'ama was restored after the 2006 Lebanon War.
