I love this name (I am half Indian), spelled either Arya or Ariya, but DH tells me that it’s a name in Game of Thrones - a show I won’t watch so don’t know! ( a show DH really likes) And he thinks that’s what people will think of every time they hear it.
Can anyone suggest something similar? A name that has a Sanskrit / Hindi nod, but also works in English? My baby will only be a quarter Indian, so really want something that works well in both cultures so she doesn’t look like she has parents who have just co-opted an Indian name!
I also really like the sound of Arya. So maybe something that has the same sort of sound? Aria is the obvious similar name, but it lacks the Hindi nod.
