Names for half desi-half English baby girl?

[Br0wnMummy]

Want something pronounceable but still recognisable as half brown. Any ideas? x

Maya
Neena
Aylah
Yasmin
Sara

Let us know what you go for!

Yes don't think they've promote it much tbh

Aishwarya.

I'm "English name" Parveen which no one struggles to pronounce or spell

Anoushka is my favourite. Was going to go for this one (as a Pakistani!) but we ended up having a boy!

Priya. I love the meaning.

I was at school with a Hindu girl named Sabrina.

Those are lovely names and fit the bill. Several of those have dual derivations don't they?

Me and my dh are the same mix....we had a son but our top girls choice was avantika🙂

Savannah
Sahara
Sienna

@Br0wnMummy
The problem is that I'm not sure how many of these names will sound properly pronounced so it's hard to comment. I do love Asha and Priya though!

But please-under no circumstances-use Priti!

No to Suella as well

😂

I think the DD is likely to be coming up to one now. Let's hope the OP didn't go with Suella

Op, don't name Avantika. Be fair to your husband. Father and that side of family will have hard time calling that name.

Use a name which does not have so many syllables.

I think Tara is a beautiful name from all aspects - If anyone asks the meaning, she will say, she is a star 🌟
It is easy to remember and pronounce but still has connection to your culture.

I also dont like Arya. It has racial connotations, even if you shrug that off, the reality is your daughter will grow up and live in Europe, not in India.

I like Siya.

My cousin in law is Rosina, her English relatives call her Rosie

We have a lot of half Indian/half English babies in our family.

We have a Zara, Jaya, Divya, Uma and Naina.

I think they are a bit generic. We are Punjabi and I would like to have a bit more of an aunthentic name. Instead of a name that is just ethnic enough if you know what I mean.
