i have been around here long enough that i think i probably already know the answer to this, but i am asking anyway, hopeful. what do you guys think of the name indie for a girl? how about as a nickname? if so, for what? i dont like indira and thats all i am really thinking of.

i do like the name indiana, i have to admit. i wish i had some kind of connection to the state so i would have an excuse to use it.

we have already decided to name our next dog indiana, but i really love indie on a little girl, so i am kind of backtracking. (as a sidenote, we are both fans of indiana jones, not HUGE fans or anything so its not like we would be naming her after the character, but the connection isnt a negative one, in our opinion) and i dont think india would work because we are bound to have a little red haired girl and i just cant see a fair skinned, green eyed india.

indira would seem a bit pretensious to me, with the whole gandhi connection.

I don't see how they are connected?

indira gandhi?

I googled her, and know I know who she is. And I'm pretty into politics!

When I think Gandhi, I think Mahatma.

I can see now why you'd find it pretentious though.

when i think gandhi, my first thought is mahatma, my second thought is indira.

when i hear indira, my first thought is indira gandhi.

maybe if i was hindu, i could get away with it.

sigh... :)
