Using ethnic names for caucasian children?
Whats the consensus on using 'ethnic' names on Caucasian kids? I have a name I love but DH isnt keen because baby is caucasian. I dont think it matters in this case because the name is not especially foreign, just obviously particular to one culture. I can see his point that a fair skinned light haired child might seem a bit odd with this particular name but the odds of bub fitting that description are slim (unless we get another red head).

Gorgeous names :) I wouldn't think anything odd of it if I met a caucasian person with any of those names :)

I have two friends who are both very blonde but from different families. They were both conceived in Japan and both have very Japanese names. First time I heard them I probably thought 'hmm bit weird, I wonder what the story behind that is' but haven't given it a second thought since.

Love Nakoa!! I say go for it. I have an Austrian first name, and a Maori middle name and I'm Caucasian. No one will know the ethnicity of your chosen name so choose one you love.
Also, having an unusual name often creates conversation and connection.My name is very unusual and that's been my experience.
