Who Wins

Pre-6, you lose this lane — Miss Fortune's Q poke through minions and Nami's E empowerment deal more damage than you can sustain, and your Q stacking requires farm that they will actively deny.
Post-6 you remain weaker in a straight 2v2 because Miss Fortune's R is a lane-winning ability if Nami sets it up, but your R gives you a safety valve to disengage or poke from range.

Your best pattern is to use Q exclusively on minions to stack it safely and only poke with Q when Miss Fortune is behind a minion that blocks Nami's Q — never commit to extended trades because Nami's W sustain and E empowerment will out-trade you.
Use your E to reposition away from Nami's Q and Miss Fortune's W passive chases.

You want to freeze the wave near your tower to deny Miss Fortune her Q ricochet poke range and force her to walk up into Zyra's plant zone — a frozen wave also lets you safely stack your Q on cannon minions under tower.
Avoid shoving; pushing into their pressure gives them free poke and dive threats.

Do not try to all-in with Zyra at level 6 unless Nami's Q and R are both on cooldown — Miss Fortune's R will kill you faster than you expect if you are rooted by Zyra's own R.
Also avoid using your E aggressively to close distance; it is your only mobility and you need it to escape Nami's Q or Miss Fortune's W passive chases.
