You do realize Indian =/= Hindu.
An Indian can be a Muslim, a Christian, a Hindu or even an Atheist. An Indian can have any name.

Plus just because he is working as a representative in India. Doesn't mean he was born and raised over there.

1. You're assuming that a person who is Atheist suddenly doesn't adhere to naming conventions of his area. Names are not based on religion, if that was the case then my parents would be Jewish since I'm named Adam.
2. Correct, companies hire people for all over the world to work in India. However, the more likely assumption is that the man talking is from the country, considering they are the second most populated country in the world and fucking ALL OF THEM work in international customer support. (This is a joke. Take it as such.)

Names are more connected to geographical and cultural bounds than religious such. The reason religion is the basis of many names is because traditional culture and religion in most cases are inter-connected. However, with this new era of religious freedom and information, people no longer seek inspiration from religion, but rather their classical culture which is INFLUENCED by a religion they may or may not share with it.

whyisthepatiosowet (08/12/2012) [-] Well it is getting really muddled in here so many replies to replies.
But I was making an observation according to what I have experienced and observed all my life. According to what I find common here. You people aren't from Pakistan so I guess you have experienced different things. I don't think it makes either of us wrong. Keep the red thumbs coming if that makes you guys feel any better. O_o

You're implying everyone following a religion names their child after some saint, deity or because of some religious significance. A christian Indian does not suddenly figure out that his first born shall be named Sean and his secondborn shall be named Henry. He usually gives them a nice Indian name and just gives praise to the lord for having a child.

www.hindunames.net/
www.names4muslims.com/
www.babynology.com/buddhist_babynames.html
People of a certain religion DO in fact name their children accordingly. For instance my ancestors all had Islamic/Muslims names despite the fact that India and Pakistan were originally ONE country. Despite living together for hundreds of years...People of different religions named their children differently. And this is a trend I still observe. I haven't met a Hindu or a Christian or an Atheist in my country who has an Islamic name just to fit in and trust me I know quite a few. What you are saying might as well be true. But definitely not common.

Still name their children after what is known as tradition. Tradition isn't religion, however it may be based on it. My Jehovah Witness aunt named one of her children Dennis, which can be traced back to Dionysus, God of Wine and son of Zeus.
Your religion does not define your name. It's ridiculous to assume such.
