It is, thank you very much!
It's cute! A few things here in there where using more references wouldn't hurt, but you have a pretty good eye for balance, especially with the placement of that abstract backdrop.
The design is so cute! You used like, what, three-four colors and she already stands out greatly. I also like her hair - the comparison may sound weird, but it looks like a fruit of sorts. I'd even say a cherry if it wasn't spiky hair.
Honestly, I wouldn'tve even noticed it's traditional until you pointed it out. I feel like making photos that look appealing themselves is part of traditional drawing now, isn't it? So good job on that front, too, it's so high-quality, it looks practically like a digital drawing (and it isn't bad quality like when some people take photos of their own art).
You could totally experiment with more colors or changing the existing ones. Me personally, I love it when people use as little as possible, and while black and white is a very solid combination with any color, why not spice it up a bit with some variations or minor details? A slightly reddish black or a creamy white can make all the difference in the uniqueness of a design. You could even give her hair some highlights or something. But it's great as it is already and since it's a traditional drawing, I don't really know if different colors were even available to you while you were drawing this.
As for a name suggestion... I don't know if you want a name AND a surname or just a name, but here you go:
Panka
Leene
Inka
Lozenge
i like giving weird names to things but it's much easier to do when you're not on a forum tbh
every time i look at a post signature I'm reminded I'm on a forum

Omg thank you so much! means a lot to me :D!!!! also yes I did only use three colors apart from the skin because I wanted to keep it bold, compact and stylish, I was also running dry on some other markers lol. Thank you for also giving me some more ideas on color, names and highlights! much appreciated, and I really like Inka so I'ma most likely go with that!!!!

Colors are nice but the anatomy needs work I would also use plenty of reference for the hands maybe take pictures of your hands holding something in the pose you want for your piece.
