Way back in 2014 me and my kids mother (not together anymore, that has nothing to do with this) visited Isla Mujeres. We were expecting twins (boy/girl), and had our son's names picked but we struggled with my daughter's middle name.

Im a huge fan of mesoamerican archeological history, and QRoo and Belize are places ive spent a lot of time in. Is the name "Ixchel" bad for a gringo such as myself to give to my daughter as her middle name? Because I did. Ive always loved it, it rolls off the tongue nicely, and its a significant name with Maya tradition.

Is it okay? I mean, im not going to change her name at 12yo, but ive always been curious how Mexicans feel about this kind of stuff.
