Which one do you like?
I like both and recently became fond of Penelope.
DH loves India but not Penelope.

India. My all time favourite name

Do you have a reason to name your child after a country? Are you Indian? Even if you are, I still think it's weird.

Penelope I don't love - sounds like the noise a pair of flip-flop makes, slapping against the wearer's heels.

Penelope is a very nice and versatile name.

India is awful! It's quite common for pretentious people to use and utterly ridiculous! Same as naming your child Paris,London or Brooklyn! It started of unusual but nice now it's become a bit try hard and tacky

Penelope on the other hand is gorgeous!

If you both like India, then India. Can't really use a name one partner dislikes.

Tbh I think Penelope is a bit blah.
