The name Bindi is a girl's namemeaning"butterfly". Bindi and is often added to lists like Australian Baby Names: Aussie Favorites. From the experts: In the Noongar language of Western Australia, Bindi means butterfly.

What do you all think? Would it be useable or one of those guilty pleasure names that remains unused? I think it has a nice sound to it. Will look forward to hearing your opinions positive and/or negative.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I'm half asian so tend to think of the decoration a lot of Hindu women wear on their foreheads.

Unless you are Australian, it sounds a bit try-hard and I'd feel a bit sorry for the kid to be honest. Papillion and Mariposa mean butterfly too but I wouldn't be naming a child either of those.

There are better hippy names like Juniper, Juno and Saffron.

Are you Aussie though? If not I wouldn’t use it.

It's what Rolf Harris's daughter is called. I'm not keen, it sound a bit too hippy to me.

I mean at least there won’t be any others in her class 🤷🏻‍♀️ It’s not bad

Steve Irwin's daughter's name.

I'm not keen, tbh.

Why not Belinda, nickname Bindy?

I think of Steve Irwin (the Crocodile Hunter) as that's his daughter's names

Are you Noongar?
If not it says "Indian head decoration".
