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 Swasawke became king, Omma was first given the title of Queen of the Middle Palace and Sagaing in fief. When her elder sister Shin Saw Gyi became the chief queen, Omma succeeded her sister as the Queen of the Northern Palace.[2]
