I think Fergus is excruciatingly ugly-sounding. I don't see the appeal in it at all.India is a huge GP of mine and I love the sound. But as an acutal name? Yick. Aside from the obvious place name issue, which makes it vaguely trashy, it reeks of colonization and other ugly things.

OK. Well. Thanks for playing. :-)I've also had conflicting thoughts about India as a name. But it's so pretty and the little girl was so cute. I actually prefer Indira as a name. Do you like Indira any better?

Indira! +noteI love Indira. I was thrilled when I found it as an alternative to India. Indira is so beautiful and so underused.P.S. I replied to your Sarah thread waaaaaay down there.

Yes. Indira is a hidden treasure of a name, isn't it?By the way, I think you're confusing me with MariaNikolaievnaRomanova and her Sarah thread. ;-) But it was sweet of you to mention it anyway.
