What do you think of Alita?

Question

Always love that name but would it be weird to name your child Alita from the Japanese cartoon and last year there was a movie Alita: battle Angel. 
I haven’t heard or meet anyone with that name yet. Would other kids or people make fun of her name?

Answer

It does sound beautiful, and I like how it seems (I haven’t seen those movies!) to come from a strong character; but maybe because I speak Spanish it reminds me of “alitas de pollo”: chicken wings. If you don’t know anyone who speaks Spanish then I think it’s fine!!

Answer

It's a nice name.

Answer

It may get confused with Anita

Answer

I loved that movie and so did my SO! We both agree that the name is very pretty. Have you ever talked, watched, or thought about something and then suddenly it appeared somewhere shortly after? That’s basically what happened to us, we saw a little girl at our job that was named Alita. I agree in that I don’t think by the time she’s ready for school, children would even know of this movie or the cartoon.

Answer

I love the movie and the name.
A friend has a gran-daughter that’s similar name, Arlia

Answer

should be fine, i doubt most people will still remember the reference by the time she's grown up. if they do, they'll probably just say something like "oh, like the anime/manga?" and then move on.

Answer

From what I saw the movie didn't do too well so I doubt it'll be a household name tbh? It's not like you're naming her sailor moon lmao! Not a fan of the name personally, but no one will know what it's from.

Answer

I think it’s a very pretty name! Uncommon but not crazy or off the wall

Answer

There used to be an old lady at our church named Miss Olita... She was incredible. She always had bags of candy that she would pass out to all the children
