"We have to live without sympathy, don't we? That's impossible of course. We act it to one another, all this hardness; but we aren't like that really, I mean...one can't be out in the cold all the time; one has to come in from the cold...d'you see what I mean?”

BOYS:
Navendra is fantastic. I love the female Nevena and this is very close.
Sahil is also nice.
The rest are a bit hard for my palate.
My favorite male Indian name is Mohinder (not that you asked!)
GIRLS:
They all sound lovely. Especially fond of Geethanjali!!
Tulsi and Presna are pretty cool too. Manisha is probably my least favorite.

Cool thanks for sharing! Where in India were you? Sometimes I try to gauge where certain Indian names are used in different pats of the country; but a lot of times, especially with first names, they're just used all over.
I was in Jaipur and Delhi. I'm guessing there must be some linguistic difference, but the most obvious difference is Hindu vs. Muslim.
Hi !!!
I like Siddhartha!
Maybe Aji is actually Ajit ..I like it too.
Mira is beautiful! I like both meanings!
Byeeeeeeeeeeeee
