Indie/Indi/Indy?

KallieandJustin

Is this even a name, and if so which spelling. I was talking to my grandma today about names and this was one she suggested and for some reason, I like it enough to add to my very long list, but don't have a clue if it is real or how to spell it. I am not trying to be youneek.

I'm not sure about those names (and I'm too lazy to do the research!), but I will say that I love the name India. It's very pretty.

I like Indie a lot but would rather use a more formal name and use that as a nickname. You could use any of these (some are more of a stretch but I've heard of Indie as a nickname for all)

Indira

India

Indiana

Indigo

Ingrid

I like it for a girl as a nickname for Indigo. For a boy I think of Indiana Jones. 

kmpls

I like it.

Indie is how you spell it when referring to the music and art genre. I like it.

mikaelaandmichael

I actually like it a lot. I would probably go with the spelling Indie.

It's kind of cute. I've heard of India, Indiana, and Indira.

Nms. Indigo is a color. Indiana is a state. Indy is an abbreviation for a city.

Indie: independent film; not a name

Indi: random letters/misspelling of Indie; not a name

Indy: Indiana Jones; not a real name

Indira: this is a name

India: it's a country, but has been used as a name

I know a little girl named Indie.

It doesn't seem complete to me. On Behind the Name they list it as a NN for male name Indiana.

 

I do like India for a girl.

I knew a girl in HS named Indie. Don't know if it was a nn or not, but I like it.

I would go with india and use it as a nn.   Even Indianna although I don't like that nearly as much..   Indie just sounds like a nn to me

It's NMS. PP recommended some great formal names. For some reason all I think of is a dog named Indy after the Indianapolis Colts.

More of a NN, but could be used.  I had an aunt named Indolene and called her Indy.  Also love Indira, went to school with a girl named that.

We named the dog Indiana.

Heh.  I wouldn't use Indie as a name and probably wouldn't use anything it could be a NN for, but I do sort of like India as a name (and only because of India Wilkes in GWTW).

I'm right there with you. India is a GP name for me, for the same reason.

I've heard of several greyhounds named Indy.

 

India reminds me of Gone With the Wind, and isn't terrible. Indira is pretty.

Indiana for a boy would be a GP name, but I would never use it.

Indie/Indy seems incomplete and like a dog name.
