Selecting a baby name is not an easy take. As a parent, you want your child’s name to be unique, meaningful, and perfect. And why not, after all, the gift of the name is a gift for life. So how about opting for a Kannada baby name for your child?
In Karnataka, it’s customary to use the father’s name as the baby’s second name. The first name could be anything parents like, but it is preferred that the initial of the name should be the first letter of their ancestor’s village names. The surname, like other parts of India, is handed down from generations to generations. Some parents even include the child’s birthplace in the name.
