I love it on a boy, it's so cute. Indiana Benjamin would be very nice.

I like Indiana for a girl. Indiana Florence sounds beautiful especiall since it honours your grandmother.

I think it is adorable for a boy. I find it way to masculine sounding for a girl. It makes me think of Indiana Jones. But that is a good association to me ;)

I love Indiana for a boy, although I don't think I would be brave enough to use it. The flow of Indiana Benjamin seems a bit off to me. I do like Indiana Florence though.

I love it on a boy [n]it's ok on a girl. I think Indiana Benjamin nn Indy is adorable.

I'm not a big fan of Indiana the place, much less as a name, but despite the Indiana Jones association, I find Indiana to be more feminine than masculine. Indiana Florence is nice, although Florence is also the name of a place.

I'm not a fan of place names for children in general, with the exception of India for a girl. I think Indiana sounds a lot more feminine than masculine though. So if you really want to use it, I'd save it for a girl. Indiana Florence is fine, especially as Florence is a family name. I highly approve of using family names.

If you must use it, a boy would be preferable. Indiana Jones is my only association with this as a name, so it is quite masculine to me. May I suggest Gary Indiana as a combo? (Sorry. Had to. Anyway...)Florence is lovely, and Benjamin is nice. Indiana Florence is far too heavy on place names.

I actually really like it - it's kind of a guilty pleasure for me. I personally prefer it for a girl, but then I vastly prefer Benjamin to Florence.

I can't say that I like it very much, but then again, I've never been a big fan of state names for children.I do like the middle names, though.
