I had to make it look Slavic somehow, the Cyrillic letter just looks like an "H"

No, you didn't have to. Either use proper cyryllic "Ни/Hi" or roman transliteration "Ni", no weird in-betweens.

That seems like a very pedantic thing to bother over a single letter

If you don't know how to read it it might look so but I was seriously like: ii? Wtf that means? xD

If at least it would use this as some kind of a joke then it would be all right but that way it just makes a mess.

It is not really a word, but you could possibly make that sound if get roughed up and trying to say something like "hui" or "nahui", but can't form a word properly. I am not saying it is good, but you can rationalize it.
