Re: We Need to Talk About India.
It hasn't been that long ago actually. There was a fairly long discussion of it within the last year or so, don't know why that wouldn't come up in search.I think it's a bit strange to use country names, but it's not really my place to decide whether it's offensive or not, and I do like some in theory like Columbia; my associations with it as a name are Scarlett, Asia, and Indigo. I also think of India ink. It mainly seems kitschy to me.I think the sound itself is trending. Indie, Indiana, and Indigo have also risen a bit recently (in the US), as far as I know. Do I think it's worse than Indiana?...Idk, not really? Maybe Indigo is less offensive because it's less tied to identity but ultimately they have the same etymology.
