Baby Names

Guilty pleasure name

Should my guilty pleasure name stay my guilty pleasure name or should we consider using it? The name is India Rose. I have no sentimental connection to the name, just think it's really pretty. Thanks in advance for your opinions!

Re: Guilty pleasure name

  • It's definitely not my style but I've heard far worse. Isn't that Chris Hemsworth's daughter's name? Not that it matters.




  • I usually don't care for place names but I think India Rose is pretty.

  • Yes, it should stay a guilty pleasure. It comes across as imperialist, and exoticizing of India's people and cultures.
  • I'm generally hesitant to use place names unless there's a sentimental or heritage reason. It's a pretty name but India is a country with more than 1 billion people and may not have the same impression with some that it has for you.

  • Thanks for your opinions!  And I agree with all of you. Every now and then I think I might have the guts to use it.....and then reality strikes. It will stay a guilty pleasure.
