Life
Holy Martyr Neme is commemorated on 31 December (new style, the Greek calendar). The synaxarion says that she received martyrdom by the sword; according to others, this is a male saint, Neme, rather than a woman. A verse says that a man bearing a sword does not frighten Neme, even if he sharpened the sword still more.
Place and time are not preserved.
