Anjali vs Anoushka, how do we decide?!

[Monsoon31]

We were all set on the name Anoushka but now the name Anjali has really started growing on us and the meaning of Anjali is delightful, whereas I don’t think Anoushka has a meaning in Sanskrit.. Please help clear our confusion!

Not weird at or frumpy, all but just old fashioned. And tbh it might have a resurgence anyway by the time she's older. If when she's born she looks an Anjali don't let that stop you!

@BibbityBobbety Thank you! I’m really glad to know this because it will help making the final decision. From what I’ve heard so far based on everyone’s opinions, Anjali = old & classic, lively, bubbly and Anoushka = strong, modern and international. They are very different names, I’m starting to understand the nature/ associations behind each name - which makes things so much easier than them both being as good as each other in my mind.

An update: we decided to go for Anoushka! Thank you for being so helpful! :)
