Saw Omma (Burmese: စစ်ကိုင်း စောဥမ္မာ, in Burmese pronounced as /zəɡáɪɰ̃ sɔ́ òʊɴmà/) was a queen consort of King Swa Saw Ke of Ava. She was a granddaughter of King Saw Yun, the founder of Sagaing Kingdom, and a sister of King Thado Minbya, the founder of Ava Kingdom. When Swa became king, Omma was first given the title of Queen of the Middle Palace and Sagaing in fief.[3] When her elder sister Shin Saw Gyi became the chief queen, Omma succeeded her sister as the Queen of the Northern Palace.[4]
