I am so struck by the name [name]India[/name] [name]Jane[/name] (a semi-famous British lady) and would like something similar: an exotic name anchored by a traditional one, using both for the first name. [name]India[/name] is off-limits; my best friend will be using it for her daughter. Can you help me think of options? I have a simple English last name.
Thank you!!
Hmm. Are you going to use [name]Jane[/name] for sure? Or something else? In terms of exotic firsts, how about…
[name]Indiana[/name] - Although I know it is a bit long and too close to [name]India[/name]
[name]Olive[/name]
[name]Willow[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name]
[name]China[/name]
[name]Asia[/name]

[name]Oakley[/name]
I was sort of trying to think of places, but I’m not really sure what you’re going for. If you reply I’ll surely give you more suggestions!

[name]Hi[/name]! It might help to know the last name, or at least the syllabic count. Are you planning on calling your daughter by both names, as in “[name]India[/name] [name]Jane[/name]”?
