I'm usually not big on Sanskirt names, but this one has a nice ring to it. Jaswinder seems very feminine. I like NN Windy or Wendy, or maybe Jazzy. It's uncommon, bur not in the bad, ugly way.

Here's the flaw with it: Many Americans (including me the first time I saw it *hangs head in shame*) will look at it and say, "Eww!" or "Trashy!" or even "Oh, brother, another made-up name". Scorn from childhood mates will be often, and you better be aware of mispronunciation problems.

Ahh, nature . . .

Only if the person bearing it is Indian, or it has special significance to the parents, I'd say. On first glance, it looks like "jazz winder". :-/

This is the name of my friend Ami's pet cat. I like it a lot too :-) It fits the cat (she's gray with black eyes, gorgeous) but it'd be great for a little girl as well. I like how "Windy" could be a nn lol. That's cute.

I agree. Jaswinder has a very nice sound--I'd probably want to call her Jassie (I have an aquaintance who's Yasimin nn Yassie, and I always thought that was sweet) or Windy! Without a nickname, though, it's still beautiful.

The only warning I have is that the average white American would likely look at it and go "made up!" You could also have some severe pronunciation problems from the unwashed masses.
