My Indian baby girls list so far - just looking for opinions on these names and suggestions! Thanks :) x

That's a gorgeous list. I love Sahana, Tamana and Lila.

I like Alisha, Ruhani & Selena. The rest are all nice too but those three are my favourite.

Mira (presumably pronounced Meera?) and Natasha are the stand-outs for me, partly because they'te cross-cultural. Also like Ruhani and Mahalia a lot.

Mahalia is really pretty.

I don’t like Mira very much.

So many Alishas and Eshas. My favourite is Neha, one of the loveliest children I ever taught.

I like Selena best, but Anika and Mahalia are lovely too. However there's none I really dislike - it's a nice list!

Love
Mahalia.
Alisha
Mira.
Selena
Avani.

Following with interest! We don't know what we're having (yet) but struggling for names already.

Any ideas for boys names? Would be appreciated! (Sorry for the hijack)

They are all a bit of a sameness to me, but that isn't a bad thing, just none of them stand out much from others except maybe Selena (was the famous singer). Your pronunciation could be quite different.

What do you want from the name OP?

Mira, Neha and Lila are lovely.

I think Priya is beautiful.

Thanks everyone for the amazing help!!
Ahana
Lila
Alisha
Serena / Selina / Celina
These are kind of becoming our favourite names. I saw on a few forums that people had some negative associations with the name Alisha which is slightly putting me off

I went to school with a Tamana who wasn’t my favourite person but I actually quite like all of the rest which is a first for me beautiful names

@Hm2020 Thank you!! I like tamana, but I’m not sure if I like it when we say it in our British accent, it sounds beautiful in an Indian accent though. The other ones on our list sound more international so we will prob rule out Tamana.

Love Selena.
Dislike Alisha as the ones I know have been horrible people. ( However their name is written).

@Spied thank you!!
@Awwlookatmybabyspider Thanks for all those awesome suggestions. Love the name Jaya from your list, so classic and strong. Also like Leena, Anya and Vanya, they sound poetic and feminine!
