all the time.

3) Who gives the names in India? What's the tradition of giving
names?
In general, parents will
give the children the name, but sometimes, grandparents will also take part in
the naming process. I think it is universal around the world. In every country,
relatives will give the children names.
4) Are you willing to change your name? Why?
No. First, I like my
name very much, and I don't feel it necessary to change my name. Second, the
name is just a small part of me; people get along with me, not with my name. So
it doesn't matter.
5) What meanings are there in the nicknames of Indian children?
Most children in India
will have a nickname for different reasons. Some people believe a nickname will
bring their children blessings, and some others want to call their children
more conveniently.

important?
Well, every Indian name
carries a meaning, and it represents the common value and pursuit of the
family. So people usually consider their own names unique and important.

It's not so easy. Firstly the family members should come to an agreement on that. Then I have to go to the police station for registration. And all the friends and acquaintances should be informed.
8) What names are most common in your hometown?
Those with nice meanings. A lot of boys are given names like Aarav or Ashish, meaning-making achievements. And girls' parents prefer characters such as Priyanka or Kiara.
9) Do people in India ever change their names?
Yes, sometimes people change their names. Sometimes, when a girl gets married, her in-laws give her a new name and start calling her by that name. However, it is a very cumbersome process to change one’s name in papers.
