Ines - lovely and underused

Think Indie is made up, not at all distinguished, and will date horribly

Think I’m alone here in preferring Indie, although I would use it as a shortened form of Indiana. Something about Ines sounds a tad body part / penisy to me.

Gosh, don't like either, sorry.
I knew a male Innes (Scottish) so don't think of Ines as a girl name, though I know it is. It's actually quite ugly.

Indie sounds like parents trying (and failing) to be cool. Very try hard.

Sorry, prefer Ines though, and love Rose.

Indie.

Ines is the street i lived on 😂

Ines is lovely and sounds classy. 😉

Indie will date and is a bit naff. Ines isn't to my taste.

Love India however.

LozMarieFielder · 20/04/2021 16:45

Hmm I like both. Ines is pretty and Indie is cool. With Rose, however, Indie Rose sounds best seeing as the s in Ines would run into the s in Rose.

Prefer Ines by a mile! I like India too, Ms Knight has tarnished it somewhat though.

Indie just screams try-hard Instagrammer kid.

Indie especially with rose

LaLaLouella · 20/04/2021 16:55

Inès definitely

India if you must

Indie, I wouldn't

Inès is lovely especially with the accent.

Indie is a not very nice nickname. India is a bit naff.
