I had no idea it was an Indian name. Oops.

My coworker was a contractor from India and he had me narrow down some of the names he selected because he wanted to make sure it wouldn't be something she would be teased constantly about in school. I loved most of his names but I weeded one out that sounded too similar to a derogatory term for a female's private parts! </p>
