A dieresis or an umlaut is occasionally used over the vowel u in conjunction with the tonal marks
when placed after the initials l and n, which distinguishes between rounded-u and unrounded-u
sounds. However, the umlaut-u is not used after the semiconsonant y and after the consonants j, q,
and x. This practise is opposed to Wade-Giles, which always uses ü, and Tongyong Pinyin, which
always uses yu.
Many fonts or inputs do not support diaeresis (umlaut) for ü, v is used instead by convention.
Occasionally, uu (double u) or U (capital u) is used in its place.

i’d go with nü3

I voted for “nv”. Why? Because I like pinyin’s “nü”, because I think it is informative. However,
sometimes “nü” is hard to make on a computer. “nv” shows you that it is “n” and then, because
“nv” doesn’t exist in pinyin, you guess that it is “nü”. I don’t think this would be as clear
with nU or other things.

nU seems daft, why suddenly have to flip into caps. nv, nvv, nu: all seem fine to me. I prefer nv
- one less key to press.

“nv”, that’s what you can find in computer while you using pinyin.

nU seems daft, but when you look closer, you will see that it is totally asinine.

I vote for nv. It reminds me of Latin and Latin is cool.

nv looks like it sounds
maybedaisy –
in fact,when i was in my element school, the standard pinyin should be nu:3,but you know that
there’s no such key in keyboard,so the chinese choose nv to instead of “nu:3″ .the correct way
should be “nu:3″
