It's one hundred percent NOT OKAY.
They're not Indigenous People and have zero connection to the name. They chose it purely because of "aesthetics". It looks "cool" to them. An Indigenous person has called them out on it. Of course, nobody can stop them really, but going through with it would be very disrespectful. And in the later years, their kid is probably going to sound like some inconsiderate jerk. Hard No on this one.
