In the entire BG2EE, the recruitable NPC that you cannot avoid no matter what are Imoem, yoshimo and Saverok. All others can be avoided or totally ignored.

in the case of Neera, if you never go to Bridge District, or if you only go there after making your whole party invisible, or if you always immediately take a detour by going to the east side of the map, as long as you don't get close enough to Mereth (little girl), you will never ever see Neera show up in the SOA part of the game.

as for her response to your claim of not knowing her, that is normal in SOA. At the start of SOA, you may also claim that you don't know Imoen or Jaheira. They think you were tortured for too long and lost some memory. In the case of Neera, instead of thinking you lost memory, she thinks there must be a wild surge causing her to mistake you for someone else. Your claim of not knowing her is exactly that wild surge. That's why she trusts you and believe you both know each other well..

Additionally allow me to make it clear that if someone honestly thinks she's more annoying than all others even Nalia, one may still complete her SOA quest line for a large number of experiences,  magical items and mony. She only needs to be in your party for one second in order to let you complete her entire quest line of a huge amount of satisfaction. How fair is her quest design?
