Baby Names

Searching for an ideal name for baby is  one of the most challenging affair for would be parents
the names need to be meaningful , easy to pronounce and lovely .
in the Global Village that we live today this task is even more difficult .
we need to find names which do not have derogatory meaning or pronounced very badly in a few language other than the mother tongue :)
in many cultures there is a custom of using grand parents' grand uncles' names . this make naming issue much easier . however for those that find grandpa rants;   names  orthodox or 'out of fashion' have to look for a suitable name from tens of thousands of options

some parents 'coin ' a name by merging part of each parent's name some times this produce a good name and many times it produces funny sounding names
but what is in a name ? Rose would be as sweet by any other name.  the 'XXXX' may be as sweet but then rose will not be sweet
here are a few resources to look for good hindu names
Vishnu sahstra naam
shiv sahastra naam
Lalita sahastra naam
