Related to this question that I asked a while ago

[柴門を雇うなんてチーム, 柴門なんてを雇うチーム,

> 私なんかで良ければ、何でも相談に乗りますので

This seems to be the most common way to say it. But how do these alternatives
sound?

> 私なんか良ければ、何でも相談に乗りますので
>
> 私なんかでも良ければ、何でも相談に乗りますので

Neither 私なんか良ければ nor 私なんかでも良ければ seem very common. I see 私なんかでも良ければ is probably
a slightly different issue. So two questions:

  1. Can I omit で and go with 私なんか良ければ?

  2. Can I not use でも in such constructions, as in 私でも良ければ?

question
particles particle-で particle-でも
でも良ければ, なんか良ければ, なんかで良ければ
Regarding 1, similar to [your recent
question](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/94470/45489), it is independent
from なんか. As far as I can think of, で can never be omitted. So the answer is
no.

For 2, yes. All of the following are possible

  * 私でよければ _if I suffice_
  * 私なんかでよければ _if even I suffice_ (being humble)
  * 私でもよければ _if I also suffice_ (instead of somebody else)
  * 私なんかでもよければ _if even I also suffice_

Since basic nuances added by なんか and でも are similar, なんかでも may sound a bit
redundant but perfectly natural.

* * *

The でも is a sort of mix between _even_ (like 子供でもわかる) and _also_ (from も).
