I always imagine her tall. Or average anyway. Maybe it's the way she carries herself.
She and Egwene are mentioned as being the same height in EotW, Egwene is often cited as short, and Min (who is never cited as being particularly tall) described Nynaeve to Rand as shorter than Min herself.
And I imagined her the same way early on. It was not until I got my own copy of EotW (after owning books 3 & 4) and picked that description up on the re-read that I realized that she was the same size as Egwene, and was shorter than Elayne.

I consider that short. Of course, the shortest woman in my immediate family is 5'7"

Elayne is tall, Nynaeve and Egwene short and Min just a little taller than average. For Wetlanders.
