Every article that I can find on web suggests the keystroke Option + z to insert that Ω symbol on a Mac. However, on my Mac, when I press that combination, I get the ˀ character. I followed the instructions in this article.

    What is your configured keyboard layout? – Nimesh Neema Mar 27 '18 at 14:46

After changing my Input Source to U.S. (via System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Input Sources), the keystroke works as expected. Now pressing Option + z inserts the Ω character.
