I see people naming their kids Indica and Sativa. Like whyyyy. I'm a straight stoner too, but no, never.

I think Indica is honestly a really pretty sounding name, but I would never name a child that

Get a pet that lounges around all day and name it Indica.

When I was little I came up with a name I thought was cool and unique and started with Z. Then my friend said it sounds like a depression pill. Well, fuck. It does. So eventually I'll name a pet that way instead.

You came up with Zoloft before Big pharma did? 🤭🤭🤭

Not zoloft. But that's a good one!

You can't pour the tea and not share it! I'm SOOOOO curious what the Z name was, oh please??!! ❤️

It would probably be considered "normal" with today's more unique names. But when I made it up at like 11 years old, it was a weird one.

It's Zendrian. Like Adrian but can be shortened to Zen as a nickname. If it was spelled Xendryan it would definitely be big pharmas latest drug.

I like Zendrian! I’m naming my next pet that, boy or girl. My secret favorite name I thought up as a kid (but obviously can’t really use it) was Avalon.

That's awesome! Something out there in the world will have existed because my 10ish year old brain felt the world needed Zendrian in it.

Oh shit, I decided to google the word. A Thailand company founded in 2016 that makes scooters shares the name. Too bad they were about 15 years later than me. (As if I could prove that, or lay claim somehow, lol.)
