Tips for parents

  • Write the name in Devanagari beside the Roman spelling, since long names often have more than one English form.
  • Agree on a short form early, such as Chiran for Chiranjivi or Shail for Shailendra, so school papers and family calls match.
  • Say the name with your surname a few times; ten letters can fill a line, and a steady rhythm helps.
  • Compare a ten letter choice with a shorter one on the boy names page before you settle.
