What do you think? DP thinks of Indiana Jones but it seems quite feminine to me with 'Anna' on the end.

I know a girl and a boy Indiana, both known as Indie / indy. So it doesn't seem specifically one or the other to me.

The only person I know called Indiana is female.

Perhaps Surrey or Gloucestershire instead ?

It's a State and it means Land of the Indians according to Wikipedia. I don't think I'd use it as a name unless there is a connection to the place.

I'd think of Indiana Jones, but I am old. Then again when I type Indiana the keyboard predicts the next word is Jones!

A female name for sure; Indiana Jones' 'real' name was Henry - so it was a nickname.

My female cat is called that.

Yes, I think it’s a female name, even with Indiana Jones.
