原I have read that the original meaning of Nemesis comes from Greek words "ne" (meaning No or Not) and Mésos (meaning middle, center or balance) similar to Nepenthe/Nepenthes (ne- "no, not" + penthos "pain, grief), which translates to "no balance" and by the way it isn't mentioned on the list at all.
This made sense to me, as Nemesis wasn't originally personification of retribution (anyone even trying to add word "goddess" near her simply proves he doesn't know his Greek mythology at all), but simply "Bringer of what is due", especially for those guilty of Hubris.
But don't just take my word on it, use Google or preferably some respected book(s) on Greek mythology for confirmation.

就像我喜欢这个名字,我认为这是一个有点奇怪的名字一个孩子Nemesis。
原As much as I like this name, I think it would be a little weird to name a child Nemesis.
原Due to the word meaning "enemy", Nemesis sounds just wrong as a name and will lead to teasing. I prefer the similar-sounding name Nemesia, which exists in other languages and is derived from Nemesis, but even that wouldn't work in an English-speaking state!
原I actually really want to name my daughter this name. I think it sounds really pretty, the original goddess sounds very interesting, and, oddly enough, it's one of the only names that me and my boyfriend agree on.
原Although it has a negative connotation today, Nemesis was the bringer of fortune, which could be good or bad depending on the circumstance. She was known more for giving people what they deserved rather than just evil.

原In Resident Evil 3 the main bad guy who stalks Jill is called the Nemesis.
原Seeing as this is a literary word for 'enemy', it doesn't strike me as a very nice thing to name your daughter. It sounds far too ''out there'' anyway.

译 我读到,Nemesis的原意来自希腊词“ne”(意思是否或不)和Mésos(意味中间,中心或平衡)类似于Nepenthe /猪笼草(ne-“不,不是+悲伤),这转化为“没有平衡”,并通过它的方式在列表中没有被提及。\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e这对我来说是有意义的,因为Nemesis本来不是报复的人格化(任何人甚至尝试在她附近添加单词“女神”只是证明他根本不知道他的希腊神话),但只是“应该是什么的Bringer”,特别是对那些有罪的人。\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e但不要只是接受我的话,使用谷歌或最好的一些受人尊敬的书在希腊神话确认。

译 由于“敌人”一词的含义,Nemesis听起来只是一个错误的名字,并会导致戏弄。我喜欢类似的声音名称Nemesia,存在于其他语言,并从Nemesis派生,但即使这不会在英语国家工作!

译 我真的想要给我的女儿命名这个名字。我认为这听起来很漂亮,原来的女神听起来很有趣,而且奇怪的是,这是我和我的男朋友唯一的名字之一。

译 虽然它今天有负面的含义,Nemesis是财富的支柱,根据情况可能是好还是坏。她更知道给予人们应得的东西,而不仅仅是邪恶。
