Yes, Dinesh ji!
Ramabanam mullai may be written as *இராமபாணம் முல்லை*.
Although '*இ' *is prefixed in the Tamil version of 'Ramabanam', it is not
usually transcribed as 'I-ramabanam'.
The name 'irampanam', which you mentioned in your first email had 'p'-anam
instead of 'b'-anam changing the meaning from arrow ('banam', *பாணம்*) to
drink ('panam' *பானம்*).
