Tips for parents
- Pick either -wor or -war for your son's name and use it on every document, so school records and passports match.
- Say the name in Nepali first, then spell it for an English form, and notice which version your family writes without thinking.
- Consider a short home name such as Ishwor or Rajesh if the full title feels heavy for a small child.
- Check the meaning behind the first part of the name, since Dhaneshwor and Gyaneshwor wish very different things.
