Too try hard?

I like India as a short name.

Feel I may have started going a bit off track with my name search!

It's nice, although not my taste.

I tend not to like names that sort of come with a certain personality/style. I'd imagine an Indigo would absolutely have to be a veggie hippy!

It's a boys name, don't really like it but I'd never think girl, tbh

Indigo is a boys' name, not a girls name IMO. I love it. It's not the kind of name I usually go for (bit of a traditionalist, me), but I really love Indigo.

I like it for a boy but not for a girl.

I love it as a name for either sex. Couldn't use it myself as I have pets named India and Digby, which I shorten to Indi and Digs - would look like the child was named after the critters!

Sorry I thought it was a lovely name for a girl!!!!

I know a little boy called Indigo, he is super cute. His parents did get a few comments though.

Great name - strong, masculine, cool and not overused!

Why wouldn't you want to try hard to find a lovely name for your son Smile?!

I love Indigo. I have heard it at least once called out in a playground, so it's not completely unheard of.
