For a girl. Middle name Bijou. Guilty pleasure name for a hypothetical second daughter.

Would you use this Pronunciation: \ˈbē-ˌzhü\ ??

I don't mind India, but dislike Bijou. It's in the middle name, so it doesn't really matter.

OMG, I love India! I just asked DH about it (and Indigo), and he shot me down. I love the NN Indie. And I've loved this name since reading Gone with the Wind, even though India Wilkes is way lame as a character.

Not a fan of either, but I wouldn't side-eye them

India is on our list. I love it! Bijou is nms. I speak French and it just seems odd to use it but whatevs.

I used to just think of the country but after hearing it more I see it as a name and think its really pretty. Bijou is eh for me but in the mn spot I think you should so what you want.

I love it. it's my GP name. I am a huge gone with the wind fan as well. I don't see it as a "place" name. I think 1800's era.
