Which would you choose out of these two and why?
Indigo, because I love the nickname potential! I think Indie is super cute
Nova is nice, but might blend in with names like Nora, Nola, Ava, etc. Indigo is vivid, spunky, and fun!
Accidental double post. So very sorry!
I honestly don’t see either one aging well, but I like [name_f]Nova[/name_f] more.
Definitely [name_u]Indigo[/name_u]. [name_f]Nova[/name_f] comes off as a little bit tacky to me. I like [name_u]Indigo[/name_u] more for a boy, but I still prefer it over [name_f]Nova[/name_f]
[name_f]Nova[/name_f]! [name_u]Indigo[/name_u] is too long and clunky for my taste. [name_f]Nova[/name_f] feels current and fresh.
I actually really like both! I love the nickname [name_f]Indie[/name_f] and [name_f]Nova[/name_f] is not as popular as [name_f]Nora[/name_f] :). Both names are a little eclectic and spunky in my opinion.
Definitely [name_f]Nova[/name_f]. I like its meaning and its astronomy connection.
I would choose [name_u]Indigo[/name_u] for a few reasons: 1. feels more complete as a name to me; 2. I love the color [name_u]Indigo[/name_u] and the ocean/water imagery it gives me, and 3. [name_u]Indigo[/name_u] has the lovely nickname [name_f]Indie[/name_f]/[name_f]Indy[/name_f].
Thanks for the replies! Looks like it’s half and half so far, more opinions are welcome!
I really like both, but [name_f]Nova[/name_f] feels slightly more wearable to me, probably because of its similarity to [name_f]Ava[/name_f] and [name_f]Nora[/name_f]. I can see how it might blend in with those or other similar-sounding names, but that definitely doesn’t mean it’s too flimsy to stand on its own!
[name_f]Nova[/name_f] is so pretty!
Thank you. I was worried [name_f]Nova[/name_f] was slightly trashy? Would also be intrigued if that would depend on what country you are in
I prefer [name_u]Indigo[/name_u] to [name_f]Nova[/name_f]
I love [name_f]Indie[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f], so my vote goes to [name_u]Indigo[/name_u].
Another vote for [name_u]Indigo[/name_u]!
I find [name_f]Nova[/name_f] quite harsh and unappealing whereas I think [name_u]Indigo[/name_u] is cute and spunky, so definitely [name_u]Indigo[/name_u]! I’ve only ever known [name_u]Indigo[/name_u] as a girl’s name. I love the colour and it also has sweet nn in [name_f]Indie[/name_f]. ‘o’ ending names, especially for girls, also feel kind of cool and unexpected.
It was [name_f]Indie[/name_f] that attracted me to [name_u]Indigo[/name_u] to start with, love it!
Personally I would go with [name_f]Indie[/name_f] as the full name.
[name_f]Do[/name_f] you think [name_f]Indie[/name_f] could stand alone as a full name? I think [name_u]Indigo[/name_u] is maybe a bit ‘out there’ by some people’s standards, wouldn’t want her to be judged negatively by her name. I’m in the UK, not sure if that would make any difference.
