Any wild guesses on what the above collection could be ???

6 years back, around at the same time of the year, after browsing a lot over the net, scanning through all the books that could be reached, reaching out to all possible resources, conducting polls at home, making number of eliminations, these were the lists we arrived at for picking a name from, for the little one to be born !

Surprisingly, the name we finally chose was never on our lists, never came up in our discussions and the one that I had never heard earlier 🙂

Found this piece of paper when clearing up stuff this morning and for a reason that simply can’t be stated, I didn’t want to trash this and wanted to treasure, and so here it lands up as a post!
