NC because nobody irl knows I'm pregnant yet.

I love hippy and unusual names, but they need to work beyond childhood too.

I have a few that I love like ziggy and cobain and bluebell and chakra but I couldn't use them irl.

Please help.

I know and Indy who is Indiana. I don't think kids get bullied for their names at school anymore, at least in cities and the southeast. They go to school with kids from India, China, Poland, Europe, US all sorts of backgrounds. They don't bat an eyelid imo. Names are generally becoming more diverse I think and the next generation will have judges and PM's not called John, David, Margaret and Theresa. So call them what you and your partner like.
