These days, in India itself there are some sorts of people who name their children as Bunty, Bablu, Chinky, etc. No, not nicknames, some parents put these as their children’s real names which have utterly no meaning at all.
Of course, there are still so many people who keep god and saint names or scientist names for their children. And, yes there is some sense in it.
The former South African cricketer Jonty Rhodes saw greatness in the name “India” itself and kept his daughter’s name as India.
Yes, he said that he loves the rich mix of culture, heritage, and tradition in India. And it was because of this fondness for the country, he named his daughter India.
