Re: India Rose

Do you not worry about the potential for cultural appropriation if you use Indira? I love both India and Indira, but wouldn't use either, for political / social reasons.

Well yes, but using a name that is from the culture seems at least a little more respectful.
I would personally only use it because my in-laws liked Indira Ghandhi, since she's a fairly polarizing figure in the Indian community.
