You are most welcome Dinesh ji. Its interesting...all these names (in different languages) have the same meaning...and referring to the same species...so no confusion!
[Actually I saw FoI page after finalizing the Tamil name, and read Gurumurthi ji's mail with Kannada name after sending my mail. Felt happy to see the similarities and convinced myself that I did not make an inappropriate suggestion :) Also delighted to know that Shrikant ji had similar thoughts.] Thanks for your efforts in putting all names together...
