Use of 'strong-nerved'

Hi

I have often seen 'strong-nerved' in Indian English. Could you please tell me if it is common among native speakers? Or would a native speaker walking down the street frown at its use in everyday English?

She is a very strong-nerved person; you can't upset her easily.

Thanks,

Tom
