Thank you all!!!
 The reason for G is because of astrology. Most of us have a horoscope (I call it the horror-scope as a lot of things like matchmaking etc depends on this piece of paper!). The pandit (priest) determines the alphabet with which the child should be named - in our horoscope. However you can have a different calling/ official name and never use the name from the horoscope. It is interesting to note that a lot of people also have nicknames - diferent names at home and school. So, imagine having 3 names - 3 different lives! :-) You don't have to stick to G - you are welcome to suggest names starting with ANY alphabet. No, this is for my brother's child. I don't want any trouble by stating my marital status here  Lastly the reason I came here for names is because - I am sure most of you travellers have come across a lot of people and sometimes you simply like a name you have heard or are familiar with persons with beautiful name....so i just thought why not? good idea huh? |
