Do you think Grateful works as a name for a girl?

It sounds very Puritan! Like a character in a Thanksgiving play.
It also sounds convincingly African, where word names - in southern African countries anyway - are frequently used and range from Beauty and Pretty to Psychology and Furniture.

When used as a name, somehow my mind jumps straight to the Grateful Dead. Though I don't really even know much about the band.
Feels kinda weird. But it's better than Thankful?

Gray could be okay, but the possibility of Grate...eek.
My instinct is to say I don't like it, and I immediately imagine someone bitter, but I honestly have no idea how I'd react to it IRL. I hate names like Honor and Patience on paper, but when I hear them IRL, I love them (I met a teenager Patience this summer and heard a little kid being called Honor yesterday).
