I had a dream about a baby girl, Zoey Daffodil.
Is Zoey still popular/trendy?
I have always loved that name!

Opinions?

So partner and I have been thinking about names...a boy is set, but as far as girls we're at an impasse.  There is a name we both LOVE, but we're not sure of it would be cruel to potential-female-child to use it.  Basically, I'm American and he's British, and we both have very common, "normal" English names.  We're currently living abroad in Russia, but we'll likely move back to either the US or the UK within the next few years.  The name we like- Ksenia- is fairly common in Russia, but there is no English equivalent (it's not like Anna or Katya or Natalya, which can be easily anglicized.)  The spelling in English is also pretty weird looking.  So guess I'm looking for opinions on 1.) would it be ridiculous to use a name from a culture we have no real connection to other than living here for a bit, and 2.) will potential-female-child eventually hate us for giving her a strange, hard-to-pronounce and weirdly-spelled name?  and 3.) will said weird, hard-to-pronounce first name sound silly with a common British last name?
