Go ahead, if you do not mind being called Yuccky behind your back.
If your inquirey is serious, I know 2 Indians that changed there names

after coming to US so you are well to ask. How about Rose?

There are also some positive references to the name Yucca, as in the
character Dr. Yucca on the Ergonica website www.ergonica.com. (See the
poetry page or garden tools for quotes from Dr. Yucca).

However, I agree that a girl with the name "Yucca" would probably get a
lot of teasing in the US. Perhaps a take-off name like "Yuki" or
"Yumi" might be more acceptable? These names have no meaning in US
English, as far as I know. If you pronounce "Yuki" as YOO-kee, and
"Yumi" as YOO-mee, or YUM-mee, you'll be safe and maybe even popular.

Best of luck. Welcome to America!

Dr. Yucca is a fictional character. Any resemblance to a real person
by the same or similar name is accidental and highly unlikely.
