sandtest Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 There are many Mahabharat/Ramayan/Puranic names which we haven't heard......like Dronacharya, Bheeshma etc. also, Jayadratha, Shishupal, Keechak:D, Jarasandh etc.
theguyinallblue Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 sandtest..there was a very popular thread here in this forum about Ramayan/Mahabharat...dig it out... it was fun..
Ram Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 There was this girl called Akanksha in my high school, I really liked that name... P.S - I liked her too.. :D
Ram Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 But did she like you? Nope... I dont think she even knew i existed. I wasnt exactly the popular kind ! :haha:
coffee_rules Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 Esha/Isha/Trisha seems to be common girl name among friends I know. Richa is also very common. I don't think we will ever hear names like Gayathri, Savithri, Lakshmi, Saraswathi, Parvathi in the future gen.
Guest dada_rocks Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 There are many Mahabharat/Ramayan/Puranic names which we haven't heard......like Dronacharya' date= Bheeshma etc. also, Jayadratha, Shishupal, Keechak:D, Jarasandh etc. Nobody wants to be called Bheeshma god knows why may be we revere some personality but don't like to be like them........
theguyinallblue Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 Puja and Priya are such common names...i used to hate it during my school days...there were so many Priyas and Pujas...Gosh..
kumble_rocks Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 My fav Indian names ( cool and smart ) !:haha: Monkombu Sambasivan Swaminathan Muttiah Muralitharan Maruthur Gopala Ramachandran Parimal wodeyar ravichandran Vangipurappu Venkata Sai Laxman I wonder why bollywood actors are not named any of these !:D
Lurker Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 Nobody wants to be called Bheeshma god knows why may be we revere some personality but don't like to be like them........ It was a name more common in yesteryears and not in use anymore. One person whose name comes to mind immediately is the writer Bhishma Sahani. It is also prudent to remember that Bheeshma's actual name was Debvrata, which happens to be a pretty popular name amongst Bengalis particularly.
Rajiv Posted January 3, 2008 Author Posted January 3, 2008 Nope... I dont think she even knew i existed. I wasnt exactly the popular kind ! :haha: Email her ICF Oscars thread
Rajiv Posted January 3, 2008 Author Posted January 3, 2008 Nobody wants to be called Bheeshma god knows why may be we revere some personality but don't like to be like them........ ..you really dont want the child tortured in school with that name
chunky_lafanga Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 How about kids with the actual name BABY :hysterical:
chunky_lafanga Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Kunti name would bring too much trouble for the kid as it sounds similar to c.unt :hysterical:
Rajiv Posted January 3, 2008 Author Posted January 3, 2008 How about kids with the actual name BABY :hysterical: ..many girls in their childhood are called baby, my 2 aunts are still called baby ( in the family offcourse )
