Namesake…

So last night me and Ra were fighting over the name of our kiddo … ok before you frown or twinkle your eyes in a pleasant surprise, le me clear the situation, we don’t have any kid and I am not even expecting, but this my friend is our favorite pass time you know. We enjoy giving the world’s strangest and stupid-est names to our kid. I know … God bless my poor kid.

Ra always forewarns me that his son’s name should be a very much manly sort of name ... okay before I delve deep inside this … here goes one more assumption … we both believe that we will have a baby boy … so Ra dreams this manly name and he has been thinking about it since he was … I don’t know … probably in his teens … some thirteen fourteen years old … and after all those years of deep thoughts ... he finalized these two names for his sons ... okay be ready for a blast … the names are SamudraGupt and ChandraGupt … and he meant it … I swear to God he meant it first time when he disclosed his idea weaved over a decade or so.

But after all these years of being with this smart @$$ … his son’s names have became little milder… but hey watch it …still he wont compromise for anything less than his very manly name concept haan !

When I have some serious fights with him … I scare him that I am gonna name his kid Jhandooram.

When I was kid … I wanted to name my kids ... Ada and Adams … Ada is the very first person who thought about computers … and Adams is just stylish … and it goes with Ada … impressive haan ... what say? I told you I am a smart girl.

Than … for sometime I had this Aarav and Aarohi in mind … I know, beautiful names.

So you might have guessed … provided you are as intelligent as me … that I want my kid’s names to start with A … and if possible … with a double A … so that the names are always on top … wherever they go. After holding a name that starts with A for all these years … I know all the benefits of A … Thanks Mom Papa … I love my name.

And I suggested the same to Ra … for this he had one instant intellegent solution … why not start the names with a numeric character … like 0ChitraGupt … or 1SamudraGupt … So now you must have understood … why my poor kid is so very scared to enter our world … but don’t worry my chweetie pie ... Mumma’s here … she will save you from all the evil ideas of your Baba … so please come aboard … we are waiting.

(FYI ... All the names mentioned here are copyrighted to me and Ra … if anybody steals these names than be prepared for the worst … ChtraGupt, Samudraupt included … and we hold a patent over that numeric character waala idea)

Hey sweet and humorous descripion. Exactly how we discuss, but why you didnot mentioned about "Arnie" or "Arny" ? I have finalized that one tentatively.
