How Koreans would call you

Friends calling you over
네하야!
네하 ends in a vowel, so it takes 야. Casual, for close friends.
At work or with new people
네하 씨
네하 ssi. Polite, roughly "Mr" or "Ms", but used with the first name.
Customer, client, online
네하 님
네하 nim. What you'll see on a delivery box or a booking.

Korean given names are almost always two syllables, so 네하 already sounds natural to Korean ears. With foreign names some Koreans skip 야 and just say 네하 or 네하 씨.

Why it's spelled 네하

Here the letters and the sound line up: applying the loanword rules letter by letter already gives 네하, the same spelling Korean media use.
