I named my daughter, Asia, because its short, different and beautiful. I truly believe you should give a child a name to live up to and I chose hers because its unique, yet a pretty sounding word and it's memorable. When needed, she simply explains , "My name is Asia as in the Continent," so its easier for people. She is now 11 and had I known then what I know now, I would've considered spelling it, "Aja." Asia's name and her brothers name are tattooed fairly large and in script on the inside of my wrists. Just beautiful and perfect, just like my babies.
I found this on a list of top 20 "blackest" names for girls.

My name is Asia but I'm named after the record album by Steely Dan called "Aja". The spelling was a compromise between my parents. There's also a band named "Asia".
