Around 1976, Cameron painted a blue woman for his short film Xenogenesis. He stated in an interview, "Her name wasn't Neytiri and it was in a completely different context, but I was already thinking about it then." [21]

Set aside time each day to practice speaking, writing and reading Na'vi. Utilize the online resources available – courses, dictionaries and forums. Creating a new language from scratch is no picnic. Frommer first established a set of approximately 500 Na’vi words to meet the needs of light conversations in Avatar. The Na’vi language gradually developed and reached 1,000 words at the time of the first film’s release. People, naturally, took notice. Some Na'vi clans, including the Omatikaya clan and parts of the Tipani clan, live in tremendously large ancient trees they call Kelutral, or "Hometree". They do not like to evacuate or leave Hometree unless it is urgent.Be patient. Learning a new language takes time and effort. Don't expect to be fluent overnight. Stay committed and persistent. yrr [jṛ] adj. wild, natural (something in its original, unmodified, untampered-with natural state)

James Cameron's Avatar: An Activist Survival Guide claimed Na'vi have the same lifespans as humans. This contradicted the old Pandorapedia which mentioned they are estimated to live 30% longer. In 2023, Joshua Izzo clarified that Na'vi living longer is considered canonical. [16] syanan [ˈsja.nan] n. a single drop or series of smaller waterfalls occurring sequentially along a stream or series of pools (countable) A fifth way of creating a Na'vi name is to look at names of the Na'vi people and combine or edit them.The look of the Na'vi was inspired by a dream that James Cameron's mother had, long before he started work on Avatar, in which she saw tall blue people, the women having six breasts. Cameron tried drawing the six breasts but admitted it looked too strange. [20] vrrìn [ˈv·ṛ.·ɪn] svin. be busy (negative sense): be tired out and overwhelmed by an activity that’s keeping one busy While the Na'vi are not as technologically advanced as humanity due to following the Three Laws of Eywa, they have still developed many tools and objects that come from natural-derived means. For example, they do not need computers because Eywa gets the job done and is essentially their biological computer storing information and knowledge. Because Pandora's plants and wildlife exhibit plenty of colorful bioluminescence at night, there is no need for them to build lampposts and electric lighting everywhere, although they still use some bladder lanterns and fire-based lighting such as fire bowls.
