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...
