Hello.
I know it might be a long shot but I was wondering if anybody on here has any suggestions of feminine / sweet Indian or Malaysian girl names.
My husband is half of both nationalities.

I love the name Priya however his cousin has that name, it is still on the cards to use but I was wondering if anybody has any other suggestions along a similar vein?

Thanks in advance :)

I knew a girl whose mum was Malaysian, she was called Mahala, which is lovely.

I love Lakshmi, but maybe you are looking for a name with Muslim roots rather than Hindu?

Trisha is both Indian and well known in English speaking countries. That may be a good option if your family is based in the UK. Saanvi, Nikita, and Deepika are Indian names I like.
