Nick Name Indie

[name_m]Hi[/name_m],

I’ve been really loving the name [name_f]Indie[/name_f] for a while now, but in my eyes it’s for sure a nick name. My dilemma comes with a full name for [name_f]Indie[/name_f]. [name_f]India[/name_f] and [name_f]Indira[/name_f] are okay, [name_u]Indiana[/name_u] is cute but I don’t want my daughter to be associated with the state or [name_u]Indiana[/name_u] [name_m]Jones[/name_m], and I was recently considering Independence which is super cool and out there, but I don’t know if it’s just too weird to name a kid.

Any thoughts?

I definitely agree that [name_f]Indie[/name_f] is a nickname. Some full names for [name_f]Indie[/name_f] could include:

[name_u]Indigo[/name_u]
[name_u]Indiana[/name_u]
[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]
[name_f]Melinda[/name_f]
[name_f]Adelind[/name_f]
[name_u]Linden[/name_u]
[name_f]Ingrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Alexandra[/name_f]/[name_f]Alexandrina[/name_f]

I adore [name_f]Indie[/name_f], as a full name. I have [name_f]Indie[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] on my short list (she would be called [name_f]Indie[/name_f] and [name_f]Indie[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]). I have not found a full name that I am fond of. I do not think there is a need for a more formal name.

Thanks for the suggestions! There are some that I would have never thought of. I am really considering [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] nn [name_f]Indie[/name_f] because my brother is named [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] and that would be a cool way to honor him without using [name_u]Alex[/name_u]!

In my opinion, Independence might be a little out there but it is usable since I’ve known a little girl named [name_f]Liberty[/name_f].
Full names for [name_f]Indie[/name_f] include:
[name_f]India[/name_f]
[name_u]Indiana[/name_u]
Inda
Indianne

I think that [name_f]Indie[/name_f] is fine as a full name- I know a few, so maybe that’s why. I do think that Independence is a bit of a GP though.
Maybe:
[name_f]Indra[/name_f], [name_f]Indah[/name_f], [name_u]Indigo[/name_u], [name_m]Indio[/name_m], [name_f]Indu[/name_f], [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f], [name_f]Adelind[/name_f], [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f], [name_f]Cindra[/name_f], [name_f]Kalinda[/name_f], [name_f]Olinda[/name_f], [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f].
