Shakespeare once said "what's there in name?" But ask me.
I happened to read a book on numerology, it was stunning to know that my name (spells "Girish") is neither beneficial nor harmful to me. But if it is spelt as "Gireish", it is friendly and beneficial to me. The reason: "Gireish" in numerology is equivalent to digit 7, which in turn, is beneficial to my Date of Birth, which is also equivalent to digit 7. Bla bla bla...
It is interesting. Many actors and film stars have been changing the spelling of their names as per numerology like for instance Karishma Kapoor is now Karisma, Tushar Kapoor is now Tussar Kapoor, Vivek Oberoi is now Vivek Anand Oberoi and Akshay Khanna is Akshaye Khanna. Why not me?
I was ready for a stunning change and I love changes. I want to try this out for fun. I changed my display name on office email ID to "Gireish Nalgirkar" from "Girish Nalgirkar". The change was evident to all and everyone could see that I have done something with my name.
Then started the music.
Boss: Do you believe in numerology or something that you have changed your name? Have you consulted a numerologist?
Me: Yea, he is a very famous numerologist and in relation to Shweta Jummani.
Boss: Do you think it will bring luck to you?
Me: Yea, why not! (if your hand is on my head)
Boss: Are you going to change everywhere like passport and certificates?
Me: Ummm well lets see (no answer)
A Friend (in email): Hey Girish opps sorry..., Gireish,,
Another friend: Sab bakwas hai re? Kis pagal ne tere ko ye advice diya?
Me: Yea for sure (nevertheless funny)
Today after a month or so, I am confused about what my real name is, because everyone is writing me emails pronouncing me as "Gireish"; clients sincerely believe that I am "Gireish" and not "Girish", my birthday cake was written for "GirEish" (I noted that E was in Caps). All in all I understand and believe that I am "Gireish Nalgirkar" for this corporate world and have accepted it and will enjoy the change till the time I wish to do so. Right ?
