Yes, it works, to me, where I am. It's too much for most people to want to use, for whatever reason. It's eccentric. But, once it's the name of a real person, it does work, and just sounds like a name to me. It's more locational and not ethnic when it's used as a name. It's like Adrian or Lydia. Or America or Brittany. It's not really someone's ethnic identity, that's a simplification. India the country is pretty diverse AFAIK. Maybe perception of the name usage is different in the UK (I'm in the US, and also live in an area where people from India are a very large affluent minority).
