India, definitely.

I'm not keen on Bluebell as it feels very insubstantial, and Primrose feels, well, prim.

India is a country/continent to me and Kitty is what you call a cute kitten.... So personally I'd not choose either. How about Primrose as a first name? With Rosie as nickname?

Kitty is no name for a child. So i guess the other one.

Honestly, they're both a bit self-consciously whimsical and cutesy. Obviously, all baby names essentially say 'my parents thought this was a nice name', but yours say 'my mother thought this was cute', which may not age well...

I like Kitty the best of the four names, but Primrose is way too cutesy with it.

Overall I prefer Primrose as a first name.
Then Kitty.


Then Bluebell.








India is way down here. I would hate to be called India.

Kitty. It was my great grandmother's name and suited her fine as an adult. Don't like India at all.

I prefer India but would choose Katherine nn Kitty over India. I think Kitty needs something more grown up/substantial for when she's older
I prefer Primrose to Bluebell

Kitty is a very sweet nn imo, but it really isn't a name I'd personally want to put on a birth certificate... Sorry.

What about India Primrose or Primrose India (like others already suggested)?

I personally would go for Katherine Primrose and call her Kitty. Katherine is just elegant without even trying and combining it with Primrose is so very very charming... Katherine Primrose is one of these "wow names", imo.
