I thought about this word and I thought it could be an adorable name for a character. It could be given to a character of maybe an alien world or our world in the future and it's in conflicts and war. And the character is named Independence because her parents hope she can free them or free the world. Or you can go a dozen different ways with this name. Might not do good in Historical Fiction as this name might not have been used too far back. Or at least not as a name but as a word.
