I quite like Nomi - simple and easy to pronounce
& it's always good to see Vashti, however it's spelt.
Any info on Aixa or Yrby?

Many forms of Naomi has been used in Sweden - Naimi, Naemi, Naima, Noomi, Nomi, Nåmi - although the name has never been fairly common. I think Nomi is very cute.
Vasti has been used as a Swedish form of Vashti, but compared to Ester, it has never become common.
The only thing I can find about Aixa is that it's an Asturian version of Aisha, but it seems unlikely that a Swedish woman would get a Muslim name. Maybe her father was a scholar?
No idea about Yrby. Yr means "dizzy" in Swedish, but you can also talk about "snöyra", blowing snow or a snowstorm, and "festyra", the frenzy of a party. By means village.
